Hi new to this forum

Want to buy a quashqai but don't know which one . Know I want a diesel and ntec+ or a teckna (if possible) but have a few questions

Have about 10k to spend. Looking at 12-62 plate hopefully

Which engine should I buy a 1.5 diesel or 1.6 diesel? Is the 1.5 the Renault engine? Which engine is the 1.6d?

Any major things I should look for when buying the car , any known faults etc?

What is the difference between the n tec and the n tec +?

Anything else I should know?


Thanks

Steve

Buying a vehicle just on the advice from other people isn't really the best solution. Get out there and have a good look round for yourself. Just be wary of possible dpf issues on pre 2014 cars. Check Parkers guide or similar for breakdown of spec for each model.

Both engines are Renault-derived. The 1.5 has a cambelt and is quieter; the 1.6 has a camchain and a bit more grunt.

N-tec+ has N-tec's features plus roof rails and panoramic glass roof
Used to have 2015 1.6dCi 130 Xtronic N-tec+ in Gun Metallic
