The NISSAN QASHQAI+2 (2009-10) 5DR SUV 4WD 2.0 DCI VISIA AUTO is a roomy family SUV with an extended body and occasional-use third row, giving it seven-seat flexibility. It sits between a conventional hatchback and a larger people carrier, offering a higher driving position and four-wheel drive for extra reassurance in poor conditions. In the UK used-car market, it is a practical alternative to rivals such as the Kia Sportage and Hyundai Tucson. This Visia automatic pairs a 2.0-litre diesel with an automatic gearbox, suiting family trips, commuting and carrying passengers or luggage. The extra seats are best for children or occasional journeys, while 4WD may appeal to drivers facing slippery roads. Its versatile character is the Qashqai+2’s main distinction from smaller family hatchbacks. Mycarcheck’s four look-ups across two VINs show an average private-sale value of £3,700, 106,000 miles, 3,000 annual miles and 3.25 previous keepers.
