So that was £1500! She sold it and bought a skoda yeti and a 350z! The xtrail had done 65k! Also the rear diff bushes fall apart causing clonking, but didn't affect my mums.
The engines sound like they knock their heads off all the time, pretty normal! They are abit tinny, but aren't too bad if it's had all the work done!
