bkkjames Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I drove the old navara from udon to rayong and back Only got praise for it. Comfortable seats loads of power very smooth. Not even tired or aching after. Hopefully the new one can improve on that. And I drove the normal one. Not the 4X4 with 178 bhp. For a pick up. It's fantastic. Pity it's a boxy ugly thing. As gf told me. I thought it was beautiful funny one of the praises of the old was its looks. My DC 4x4 in Black still looks better than me - that's not hard though.

JesseFrank Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Looking at the spec, how is it possible that in the double cab version only 1 model is available with leather seats, and even is a manual. Look again Jesse I downloaded the spec PDF file, and it shows me in double cab only the calibre VL 6 MT has leather seat/door trim. All the others have cloth material listed. Jesse I think you will find that cloth is listed as standard except in certain models like the one you mentioned and the top of the line 4x4 dc at which are leather. That's what I'm saying. As far as I recall when I purchased my current Calibre all had standard leather seats, though not the quality the current model has, while now i would need to pay extra for it. And I have such a feeling that it isn't only a few thousand Baht. I would never again purchase a vehicle with cloth seats in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea what the difference would be - maybe a dealer can tell you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace of Pop Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Not to worry Thais do a superb job of trimming. Could be a blessing seeing the unimaginative O.E Leather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace of Pop Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Nah, im a Choc n Cream Guy.They ripped out my shitty Honda Brown O.E. from new Trimmed the doors too for 40K ish..Mates had his White 4 door Navara done in Black n White with heavy saddle stitching, really looks quality. Another one done her Mazda 4 door , cant remember the name of those bloody ugly grinning things but forgot to change the seat so they recovered Mom n Pops Cement bench without padding it that passes for a rear seat.Toyota n Nissan still rule imo.

Thanks Ace - I came across a new Teana yesterday in my travels, quite nice looking...no idea how it drives. Outside of Lexus, it's the closest the Japanese get to competing with the 3-Series and the C-Class. Not everyone's taste when it comes to looks, but really a step up in driving experience and refinement over it's 2 main competitors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banzai99 Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I reckon Nissan could make a great SUV out of the Navara, be a real challenger to Toyota and Isuzu. Any news on one in the pipeline, not the XTrail ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
