Are D40 Navara's worth keeping after 80,000?

[YoGi_93]

By all accounts they dont last too well after 80,000 so I just want more opinions. Ive spent £1700 on it in the last 3 months keeping it going, 90% of the people ive asked say get rid of it whilst it still works because their no good at that mileage. They seem to have a bit of a reputation. Does anyone have any opinions or experience in the matter?

 

cheers

Mine has 85k had no problems at all. Who knows with modern cars, it a lottery.

you only have to look on ebay and see some of them have alot of miles on them 130k plus easily, but i drove one the other day, 110k on the clock, it was absolutely fine, no problems when i drove it

shouldn't have said that lol tomorrow it will break down now!

suppose its a guessing game yeah. The mechanic that did the work said it looks sound enough but the reputation concerns me a little

We bought a new navara by the time it had 40k on the clock it was like triggers broom. Looking for another new double cab this week Nissan not even on the list. Citroen with another name now.

Mines done nearly 140k with no major issues.

Mine has done 75ish probably closer to 73. Other than new tires, new front discs and pads and new ujs on the front prop nothing major. Although its service is next week.

Have one that's currently on 212k and still drives and runs spot on, only usual maintenance brake discs pads etc uj's on front prop etc, it does tow our 12ft ifor tipper loaded with logs quite often as well usually over its legal towing limits ;-) . it is a works pickup hence the high mileage and originally they had 3 the other 2 died at around 180k ish we'll say died head gaskets etc went.

 

I would say at 80k your good for a while yet.
