Nivin Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 20 hours ago, Rizwanm2 said: after test driving couple of Xterras today i found really good one. its 2010 off-road version vehicle is very clean and not abused in desert. kind request from all Xterrians and our seniors, what are the major things to look for when buying an Xterra. Thank you in advance. @Rizwanm2 make sure the gear shifting is proper from 1-3 and you don't feel any shift shock and SMOD. These were the common issue which i found when i was searching for X but i end up in paying more for overhauling the engine . 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizwanm2 Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Thanks everyone for advices. Finally I didnt close the deal and walked away happily after seeing this. 10 accident history 1 with multi vehicle collision 😬 For my surprise this is one of cleanest and best driving condition vehicle I test drove in my recent hunt for xterra. Lesson learned eyes can be very much desieving. There are so many things we can't see to our naked eyes. 😱 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it only provide accident reports filed by SAEED in Abu Dhabi or sharjah. I checked lot of vins in these sites but did not see any accident reports from Dubai. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I guess that’s why he didn’t want to let you do pre purchase inspection. Paint depth indicator would pick it up straight away. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topgear Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 @Rizwanm2 @Nivin thanks for the websites. I used to pay for the car report from the links provided by Dubizzle. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rahimdad Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 That's 1 accident every year. The years he did not have an accident was well compensated for in other years. One he'll of a driver, attracts collisions. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
