I drive a Tekna diesel. The car is the easiest and most economical car I've ever had. Operating the heater and other controls on the move is very easy with the push buttons rather than having to take my eyes of the road to use a touchscreen.
Never buy a Nissan Qashqai timing chain issues and after that new engines are needed. Appalling air conditioning new condenser needed every two years. Parking sensors fill with water when it rains and it thinks your parking when you drive Nissans answer was to drill holes in the bumper to stop the water ingress. Watch out for the warning signs oil consumption that’s the start of your Nissan journey enjoy 😉 PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS CAR. Sorry Nissan but you need to honour the people who bought the faulty cars you produced with Renault building the engines and fitting the piston rings incorrectly. If at least one person reads this and it stops them buying one I am a happy man.
I’m more than happy with the Qashqai ST-L 2000cc 2018.Ive had a lot cars in my time but this beats them for for older person as it drives will and ease to get in and out of. Recommend it to all ages but ideal for persons like me being 80 .... Cheers and top travelling..
I've decided to reace my old Qashqai with..... another Qashqai because its such a good car for me. Upgraded to Tekna Plus. I love the buttons, when you are driving buttons are souch better than touch screen. Also.....I like lots of buttons lol Oh! My brake Button broke after 2 years. But that is my only complaint. Fuel consumption is brilliant, its a doddle to drive on little country roads and goes like stink on the motorway. 10/10 for me.
Yeah i do agree with you. Compared to other reviews, some of them are just saying negative sides of the car instead of showing the good side. I just bought this car and after watching other's reviews , it makes me feel regretful of buying it just because of those negative sides. But Im glad to see this review, this guy focused on what the car has in a appropriate way. Im still happy with my car and so far, the performance is good . Thanks for sharing this video
We've had the 2014 model Qashqai Tekna 1.6 dCi (from 2017) for almost 7 years now.... and we love it. No major problems... and it is actually still quite modern when it comes to electronics. It actually does park itself.... and it works ;-) Aside from being a very safe car to drive (it was the safest car in 2015, I believe), it is a joy to drive.
Really enjoying our 1.2-litre DIG-T 115PS Connecta Auto, bought New in Nov 2017. Comfy and easy to drive. Feel OK even after a 4-5 hour drive across country. Great value and the material quality is fine, especially considering the New retail price under £24,000. (I agree that the car and trim as priced above is expensive) Actually preferred this car after test driving a number of competitors including the very accomplished Honda CRV, but that car was less involving and just a little "floaty". Great dealer too.
i am buying a 1.5 cdi tekna next week and love all the gadgets on it but i would have appreciated an automatic closing boot as it has everything else on it
Great Video Review. I wish Nissan had Included more soft touch materials and a better parking brake. If I was buying Crossover then I would choose the Peugeot 3008
@@Radio4ManLeics I had the Tekna, then changed to the 3008 GT LINE...love the GT line. BUT...with needing a new lease, the deals on the QQ are so good right now that I'm going back in 3 months at the end of my gt-lines. Both are good cars. Price up the spec you want and both will do you great.The 3008 is better if im honest but not £80 a month better ;o)
Loving the videos which car do you recommend for someone who’s having one baby and a dog. Everyone seems to have their own choices tends to be get a big boot due to the pram and kids stuff. Some say suv others say estate??? I was just thinking either the new Ford Focus or the Seat Ateca?? What do you think?
It's a difficult one to answer, because it depends on budget, what sort of body shape you're looking for and also what else you want from the car. Focus and Ateca are good choices, I'd doubt you'd be able to go wrong with either. I'm glad you love the videos, it's great hear people enjoy what I do :)
Car Obsession apparently with a baby on the way I should be concerned with Boot and rear space size. Was looking at 20 k mark but if decent pcp deal for under 250 a month would do. New Ford Focus is being raved about. I personally liked the Seat Ateca. Also for estates I was told Skoda superb...
To be honest, I doubt you could go wrong any of those cars. I've driven the Superb though, but a family friend has one and they are happy with it. I'm trying to get an invite to the UK launch of the new Ford Focus, but it's proving a bit tricky. I'm confident I'll be able to test it before the year is through though.
Sorry.... are you complaining about the parking brake????.... I haven't touched it in over five years....? The car turns on the parking brake automatically.
Hello Tim, thanks for watching, and thanks for the comment. Yes, I was complaining about the parking brake button as it felt cheap. As to the car turning it on automatically, I honestly can't remember as it's been years since I drove the car.
@@CarObsession Hi there.... it's just a little funny, because to me it really seems rock solid. Honest. It is actually one of the most 'solid' buttons/levers (whatever you call it) in the car. Again.... I rarely use it.... or rarely _used_ to use it, but two weeks ago, my boy started his first rounds of delivering newspapers in the neighborhood, so I followed him (in the rain, hehehe;-) ), and used the 'handbrake' frequently... and it was absolutely solid.... and it felt absolutely firm and high quality. The only thing (and I haven't tested it) is if electronic "handbrakes" do actually function at speed.... I mean; what happens if you 'pull it'.... or 'engage it' I should say.... at speed?
@@timholstpetersen79 Fair enough, I can only comment on my own experience, but the button just felt cheap to me. I've never tried pulling one at speed so can't comment on that. From what I've seen, though, I don't think a great deal would happen.
Hi Lew775, thanks for watching. Yeah, the inside doesn't exactly look like it should be in a new car. Imagine how dated it will look in 4 years time...
3008 is a very good car, I definitely enjoyed it when I tested one last year. I won't lie, I think the GT model is overpriced, but I would rather have a 3008 than a Qashqai.

Does anyone know if the passenger seat has height adjustment ?
i know it does in the tekna 👍🏼

The Nissan Quashquai: "It's not too bad".

Good to hear your thoughts Jamie, thanks for watching.
You want buttons? Try a pre-facelift Peugeot 407. ;)

Test drove the Nissan but it wasn’t anyway near as good as the Peugeot 3008 which I bought.
Im looking at the same decision atm.

@@Radio4ManLeics PS.....if they had kept the 1.2 engine I wouldnt have gone back...it really did hamper the cars progress. The new 1.3 is much better.
Great video 👍
Thank you very much! Thanks for watching Anish.
Test drove the Nissan but it wasn’t a patch on the Peugeot 3008 which I bought.
Yup, the 3008 is a very good car indeed. Thanks for watching cambo2910.
Think I prefer the Seat Ateca get more for your money and better to drive too.
Same here, if I'm going to be honest, thanks for watching.
Comparing Cx5 and Qashqai good job
Hello Prakash, thanks for watching, and thanks for the feedback.
still good vid tho
Cheers Forestguy, thanks for watching.
I prefer the Renault Kadjar tbh.
Hello Nerven1986, thanks for watching. I've not had the chance to test a Renault Kadjar, so I'm afraid I can't comment on that.
Both have Renault engines

carwow knockoff
Hi Forestguy, how is it a carwow knockoff?
great video mate ... but that car is dated already... just look at that entertainment system
Hi Lew775, thanks for watching. Yeah, the inside doesn't exactly look like it should be in a new car. Imagine how dated it will look in 4 years time...
i hear you there mate ... i just purchased a 3008 gt ....now thats the future of cars
3008 is a very good car, I definitely enjoyed it when I tested one last year. I won't lie, I think the GT model is overpriced, but I would rather have a 3008 than a Qashqai.
