Buying a D40 Navara, what to look out for?

[Brushcutter]

Surprised how you got through break discs? I sold my first navara with 53,000 miles on the clock, same break discs. My current one is up to 54,000 miles, still on the same discs

 

My first one was much better.

genuine break discs?

I got rid of an 07 d40 about 3 months ago, had it just shy of 5 years v little went wrong in the 60k I put on it, sold it at 107k

That was a good price.

What model was it?

Mines got 60k with a fsh on an 07 King cab SE

Maybe mines worth more than I think?

Double cab aventura 07 plate with 107k on the clock, got 4750 plus vat on a trade in.

Bought my 06 at 3 years old with 45000 on the clock, now done 170000 with very few problems. Tows like a train, returns average 28mpg with a lot of heavy towing, and it's still on the same clutch it had when I bought it.

Wow good lot of responses there for me to mull over! I have heard a few horror stories about them but I think it's just down to the volume of them on the road (I hope anyway). I've been having a butchers over on the navara forum and read up on the drive chains and rotting chassis at the rear, so I am looking out for those.

 

I looked at one today that had a random squeak coming from the drivers front corner could this be a prop shaft UJ?

you will find theres good & bad 1,s. most off the bad stuff is thru poor/bad & lack of maintance imo

Yep the same with all machinery really if you look after it, it will look after you. Full service history is a must for me when buying any motor!
