One specific build year on one specific model means that all Nissans ever made are fireballs waiting to happen.

Post by: Pete79 on August 08, 2017, 03:02:29 PM: You probably do, but photos of the same model get a bit boring after a while.
It's much better when a manufacturer can manage to make the whole product range ignite.... ;D

Had a few to choose from with the pathfinders.
The stories where pretty much the same in the US and the UK, but the pictures are very nice in this one.... :)

But the rest was all in good fun.... ;D

Us Jeep owners have thick skin, those Nissan owners are a bit of a delicate bunch though. ;)
