No they aren't interested in the VIN plate!! Nissan Customer Services told them no diff between auto and manual therefore there is no problem! When I phoned Nissan again and pushed the matter, they admitted they had NO printed data on the automatic so all they could really say for certain was...

YAWN!!! Garage being stubborn. We'll see!! :-)

Rustic - my vehicle is the older 2.7 TDi SE+ 5d Auto - not the 3.0 stated here. And I have passed my B+E test - I've even had compliments on my reversing skills from BOYS!!!!! :p

Can you come with me to the dealership?!! :rolleyes:

I have the original handbook and I can't find it anywhere!!! Will scrutinise more closely tonight!

It was Nissan UK customer services that said to me and seperately to the dealer 2.8 tonnes! And that was technically correct and he would stand by that - Daniel was his name!! It's this being said by them that is my stumbling block with the dealer I bought the car from! :confused::confused::(

Yes sources!! Lots of sources!! I know it is 1700kgs I'm just trying to find it difinitively so the dealer can't do any weasly wriggling!!

daved - this is exactly my opinion but WTF are Nissan doing saying otherwise?!!! The sales manager did admit he knew nothing about towing but was going to check with a friend of his who is a tow bar man. He seemed to think he should know. The only thing about the VOSA leaflet is it is not...

Trailer is 935kg empty. One horse is heavier than last time on weighbridge which was 635kg!! Other horse is a bit lighterweight but still a good 550kg. 2.1 tonnes would see me legal but 2.5 would give leway for big hills. I used to tow one horse in trailer with amondeo and it was rated to tow...

Oh and whilst its all beautifully listed on Parkers, according to the sales manager, the motor trade have boycotted Parkers as they had conflicting and wrong information. But by his own addmission, Glass's don't have the vehicle's data!!!!!

PS I don't want to have to go to court to argue anything!!!

AW HELP HELP HELP!!! Nissan are saying 2.8 tonnes!! DVLA saying max towing weight (by law) is GVW (2580kg) - GTW (4280kg) as per stamped on the VIN plate!! Which equals 1700kg!! Garage trying to be helpful but said if Nissan say 2.8 tonnes then that's what it is!!! I then said about DVLA and he...

It is a W reg (July 2000) spec above. Odometer reads 29k but have paperwork to confirm replacement dash at an Arnold Clarke dealer at 54k. Very good order, slight rust starting to bubble above front arch which I was going to get sorted. Lots of nice extras such as air con, cd multichanger, full...

Thanks for your help! It's a pity - it's a great car!! I just really need it to tow!That's why I bought it! But it is great in the snow! Will speak to trading standards before I speak to the garage and see what they say.

so how easy is it to remove the towbar I had fitted?!!! I suppose i'll just have to suck it up and loose the £168 for the two new tyres I put on it! :(

I've just recently bought a Nissan Terrano from a reputable car dealer. It is 10 years old and is a top spec model (2.7 Tdi SE+) and is an automatic. I missed the fact that the car was an automatic when I read the advert (doh!!) but wasn't put off by this fact when I saw it. I did however say to...
