12 months on and goodbye

I had my Qashqai Tekna 1.6 4wd in March 2014 and now after 18000 miles I have sold it on and just wanted to mention a few things about the car. My reason for getting rid is that I now have 2 dogs and it just isn't big enough for 2 black labs and lots of photography and walking gear. Overall the car ...

19 inch wheels ride quality

The parking assist helps to reverse park into a space or parallel park, but doesn't stop you kerbing the tyre when pulling up along side the pavement or passing a car turning right as I found out, but I managed to find a fab place near Newcastle airport which polished a minor scuff out. Now I park a...

Space for the dog

NeilI swapped from an X trail to a Qashqai and found my cage was too big for the new boot so have had to get a dog guard (adjustable one from Halfords - fits great) and this accommodates my Lab no problem (have also removed the parcel shelf). She loves it and to be honest I don't miss having the cag...

Spare Tyre / Gunk / Jack etc

[quote="korky"] So if the boots sides sink slightly without the spacers...is that the 'lower hidden boot' - do we not get a raised board as well? Is that then also affected? Or does this mask the issue for now?[/QUOTE] The upper boot area above the raised board is unaffected by this and yo...

Spare Tyre / Gunk / Jack etc

I have the space saver which I got from Glyn Hopkins. Comes with whee, tyre, tool bag containing jack, brace etc and is suited for use with 19 inch tekna wheels as a space saver/get you home solution i.e 50mph limit. Fit in boot is OK, tool bag stops things rolling around, but no spacers does mean f...
