Although to the casual observer Nissan appeared to be overburdened with 4x4 models at the time of the Pathfinder's arrival, there's always space for a model as good as this. Based loosely on the Navara pick up chassis, the Pathfinder slotted in above the X-Trail and Terrano and below the sporty Murano, offering a rather more 'lifestyle' alternative than the desert-issue Patrol. Although the engine line up is limited, the Pathfinder has became a global success for Nissan and looks like decent business on the used market.
If you can't run to a Land Rover Discovery3, the Nissan Pathfinder is a very capable Plan B. With cars now starting to dip regularly into affordable territory, you'll get a lot of very reliable vehicle for your money. Our bet would be an early 2.5-litre SE. They're relatively common so you'll be able to pick and choose and with the 2006 Pathfinder price decrease from new trickling down to used prices, they now look very good value.
Borrow £6,000 with £1,000 deposit over 48 months with a representative APR of 18.1%, monthly payment would be £172.36, with a total cost of credit of £2,273.28 and a total amount payable of £9,273.28.
