Re: Berlin QQ Tekna + (Dynamic Paket) ProPilot

Dave, I got this set of wheel nut covers which include for the lock nut. Might need a slot hack-sawed partly down the side if too tight though.

Re: 1.3 petrol n motion auto

We were in the same situation as you are now end of last year. A warranty plus an mot and full service plus maybe tyres all added up so I got a carwow quote. It yielded a decent reduction on a 1.3 DCT Auto at a local dealership but with limited choice of colours. We decided to visit another nearby d...

I found I was checking the oil level more often and it did need topping up which ...

Re: First QashQai

Our previous car was a QQ which we had from new and we had no problems apart from the battery going flat due to lack of use during the present circumstances. It was replaced with an upgraded battery free of charge with the RAC cover. Upgraded after 3 years last October with the latest Tekna 1.3 DCT ...
