1. If you are not in car businesses then the resale value shouldn't be anything to consider. 2. When you are buying a range rover then things like routine maintenance should not be an issue. Luxury comes at a cost.
Gari ni maintenance, the problem with Kenyans is that we want to abuse and misuse our vehicles and expect them to still deliver without breaking. That's impossible, just do thorough routine check-up and maintenance that's it
True but some vehicles are also just poorly designed. Nissan transmission issues are global. Word to the wise. RUN from Jatco CVTs. If you have one already though, routine maintenance muhimu and at least it will serve you. After market cooler for the tranny is also VERY important. Mwenye sikio askie.

I seem to agree with my brother I leave in Sweden and work in one of the biggest Volvo engine factory that manufactures Volvo cars and I’m very knowledgeable about them. For my people Kenyans,please keep of from Volvo v40 especially D2, D3,V60 D2 and V70 D2,D3 models the worst of all is V70 D2,D3,They have great range of issues from fuel to Cooling System,the gear box,the engine,the heating system inside Volvo cars are extremely expensive to replace if it breaks down including the XC60 heating system however,XC60 is one of the best of the best category From D2 upwards we manufacture especially if one has knowledgeable expertise in Volvo cars. If anyone would want to purchase this cars,please go for Volvo v40,D3,D4 especially the so called R design or model from 2017,V60 cross country from 2017 and above,V70 only D4 R model from 2018 and above anything else,keep off.🙏
@@samsonwambugu8316 XC60 model from 2018 and above is okay 👍 however though,make sure the service is done properly and with someone very knowledgeable in Volvo cars then you will have no problem eg use the recommended oil in user’s manual book 📕 never use anything else. Second to that,keep checking your dashboard because when it’s time to do the service,it will automatically indicate in your Volvo (book time for service) unless something is not working in your Volvo electronic system but all Volvo from 2009 should indicate when it’s time for service. Thanks for your question it’s my hope that my answer to your question is going to be helpful to you.🙏 May you enjoy driving your XC60 I have one myself and it’s a great car.

Pole. Jatco CVT is an issue globally. Pole sana. If possible sell the money pit and get something better. Personally I would prefer manual if you looking Nissan. Too bad there aren't many options.
The Nissan Bluebird Sylphy nearly caused me to postpone my wedding in 2014. After hiring it, the engine overheated, and I had to spend KSh 130,000 on a new engine just two months before my big day. I absolutely agree with you on this cause I despise that car with passion.
So if a car manufacturing has been discontinued one will not be able to get body parts??.i doubt since we have good cars like premio,spacio,toyota 91 etc which were discontinued but I still see them on the road.
I have bluebird, I have changed the gearbox and the engine. Not easy to maintain. I agreed to live with it...i can't even resell it juu imekula pesa mingi uchungu wa kuuza noma
The first time I got into a Nissan March it died before reaching our destination. It had a radiator issue and the way the owner had praised it on our way 🤣 Anyway, I see so many on the road nowadays. They can't be that bad, surely.

Yeah but maybe youd want to sell it at some point. Why would you not worry about the magnjtude of the loss?

Any car should undergo routine and proper car maintenance.

Best to replace its Engine and problem solved
maybe u bought locally used...have been using xtrail t31 since 2016 first owner..i only do service and replace worn out parts..very reliable car
Topically, Xtrail t30 and t31 are good SUVs, the problem is their consumption relative to their body weight, low horsepower for heavy body.
