General Comments:

The 1.8L version of the Wingroad is quite zippy for a station wagon. Has two sport modes if you like. A set of Tiptronic paddles behind the steering wheel + and automatic sport mode. When either of these are engaged, it's like a rocket. Especially considering it's a CVT.

As per all Nissan's, it's well built and will run forever.

Faults:

No mechanical faults, just very boring to drive with no grunt.

General Comments:

If you want a very reliable wagon that is cheap to run, the Wingroad is great.

The car lacks any power at all, and revs very high with any movement.

General Comments:

This was the first car I've bought, and it's easily been the most reliable. Nothing has needed to be replaced (besides a set of tyres) or repaired. Engine seems very bullet proof. Clutch is great, gearbox doesn't crunch. Very cheap to run (gas and maintenance). Will get 7L/100km on highway and 8-9L/100km in town and traffic.

Can't expect much from a 1.5 in a station wagon, but it's definitely not a POS, and I can trash it all I like. Have had four people in it with snowboard gear getting up a mountain no sweat, and on an icy road.

If you can find one with low k's and are not too fussed about needing a fast car, I would really recommend one of these.

Faults:

Nothing.

General Comments:

This car is a Wingroad, (aka an AD).

Great little run about wagon, economy on the open road is fantastic. Being a 1500cc engine, it's no performance car, but gets around quite happily.

It is a small wagon, so don't expect a heap of room - rear seats are a bit squishy for tall passengers. We manage to squeeze ourselves, 2 kids with car seats and the dog in with room to spare for the shopping.

Came with a GPS/TV unit, but is of no use to us in NZ.

Factory CD stereo is reasonable.

We will have this car for probably another 2 years, before upgrading to something a bit larger or getting a 2nd car.
