The NISSAN MURANO (2005-09) 5DR SW 3.5 V6 CVT AUTO is a large, five-door SUV, offering a more spacious, higher-riding alternative to a family hatchback. In the UK used-car market it is a relatively uncommon choice: mycarcheck.com has recorded 1,058 look-ups covering 439 different VINs, suggesting steady interest in this distinctive older Nissan. The automatic Murano is best for buyers seeking relaxed journeys, a spacious cabin and a high view of the road. It suits families and longer trips, but its size and petrol use are less convenient for crowded streets or low-cost commuting. Average recorded mileage is 104,000; annual use is 4,000 miles. Compared with more conventional rivals, its bold styling and powerful character give it a more distinctive, comfort-focused feel, while fuel economy is not its strong point. mycarcheck.com reports an average private-sale valuation of £2,600 and about four previous keepers, useful context when weighing condition and history.
