Hi All,
Looking for some advice/help on getting a Qashqai or a similar SUV type car. We've currently got a 2007 Polo but have had numerous issues with it and it's also quite small for us - we need a family car. My wife is keen on the Qashqai but I'm not quite sure what to expect for our budget of ~ £8k (might be able to stretch to 10k).
Looks like for the lower end I should expect somewhere around 70+k miles, petrol and at least 7 years old. Does this seem right? Also, is it worth getting the vehicle check reports? We've been looking at petrol but is diesel worth it?
Although we're focusing on a Qashqai we're happy to look at any similar cars (SUV) that are good for regular motorway travel and have a large boot/capacity.
Might be basic stuff here (sorry!) but I've not actually bought a car before (wife's cousin took her to get the polo) so don't want to miss anything or buy something that's not a good deal.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!
