I spotted this today:

A pre-reg Nissan Qashqai 1.5 Dci 115 Acenta 5dr registered FL20 YAX - but it has the OLD Connect3 system!

... so don't assume an apparently recent car will have the latest system. This car might actually be nearly two years old? No wonder it's cheap! £16,500

Same thing happened to me, pre-reg 19 plate with 8 miles on the clock, with the latest 1.5 AdBlue engine, but with the old connect system.

When I did the checks, they all came back with the car being manufactured in 2019, though it probably wasn't.

But, with a £9000 saving on what is a brand new car for the sake of argument, I can live with the old system.

They have a lot of junk to get rid of...and that Connecta is very lame IMO. Joke = replacement at over £3K
