nissan navara double cab

[Pinkfoot]

No leaves here mate.

 

My brother has the coil sprung model.

We did 1200 mile round trip to Scotland and back.

Vast improvement on the outgoing model.

Any Navara lads know how many tonne bags /cubic metre bags in a level load ??

 

In answer to this original question, a '58 plate double cab has a level load area of 1 cubic metre less the wheel arch intrusions. So therefore a level load would be slightly less than a cubic metre bag. A standard builder's bag (80cmx80cmx80cm) has a volume of 0.512 cubic metres though.

As for 'tonne bags'

 

Getting the firewood into the back isn't the issue. Getting the damned thing to the delivery address is more tricky though - tell me, how many times did it break down en-route?!

 

Already on record in agreeance with Big J on the shiteness of Navaras :lol:

Agree it is 1m3 less the wheel arches. I get up to 6 barrow bags in mine, and Ive got a truckman top on it as well! Bags are 48x48x97 and we get 3 or 4 on their sides and two upright on the open tailgate! So that equates to about 1.4m bagged up. If I was to take the truckman top off, which I might do, then I'd easily get all 6 standing upright in there.

 

Cracking vehicle. I've got one of the first ones sold, on a 05 plate with 142,000 on it now, all done by me. Had a heavy duty clutch put on under warranty and that's about it. I'll drive it til it dies then get another one.

 

Currently getting 37 mpg!

People either seem to love their Navaras or hate them. So many of them just fall to bits under a heavy work load.

 

How on earth are you getting 37mpg? Driven at normal traffic speeds, 37mpg is nearly impossible (I say this as someone who usually drives extremely economically). Can't be carrying any weight or working it (which might explain why your's hasn't died yet!).

 

I've not had it mapped or anything. That's what the mpg computer says and I don't think its wrong. It tells me I can do about 500 miles on a full tank and unless I go berserk its about right. I've got a pathfinder as well and that's doing about 27mpg. The navara is the oldest and maybe its a euro 5 engine not a euro 6 like the pathfinder is? It seems to me that the emissions criteria makes the engines less efficient at burning fuel, ie it uses more fuel but gets less mpg as well! Bloody mad.

I thought the Navara was 70l?

 

At least mine was.

That could explain why my warning light used to come on very quickly.

All this talk of fuel tanks is irrelevant anyway as you'll break down long before getting to the end of the tank!
