That sounds a bit too cheap for a 4.2 V8 Q7 :roll: Might be the 3.6 V6.

Yeah its a good buy considering a brand new one costs 185k.
Fortuner, pretty fine off-road but the Xterra is a nice alternative to the Fortuner. Its rare and new on the roads plus it looks much better, and its a pretty sweet off-roader too.

But the Xterra interior is not much to write about. Sat it in the other day and it did not feel fun at all. Same goes for the Qashqai interior. Plasticy and awful coloured fabric.

Also Nissan here only offer one interior for those models.

Audi Q7 for 120k sounds a bit too cheap to me!
It's a car in high demand these days and I don't think they did not have in UAE a 3.6 version in 2006.

I think its a scam

The guy email me and told me the car back with him in UK but it registered in Dubai and he want me to transfer 4000 euros into a western union account :twisted: so he know I am serious and he will bring the car with him to dubai from the UK :roll:

Its a Scam written all over it
What you think??

BTW so best 4x4 in the 100 - 120 AED range??

This is the 2007:

Ok..an improved interior is what I mainly see.

Is it only me, but do you others also feel that this generation of Pathfinder never really sold that well in UAE?
The last pathfinder was a good seller and popular car, but this one, you just don't see that many on the road. Specially compared to the Prado, Fortuner and Pajeros.
