Default New car for the fleet

Well after driving a 4x4 for a bit, the other half decided she liked the idea of a 4x4.

So I set about finding something for her.

The usual trawl of some X5's and some XC90's I stumbled across something a little different.

A Nissan Murano. I kinda like it as it stands out from the crowd. I admit the look is a little "marmite", but the missus likes it and that's the main thing.

So all being well we pick it up tomorrow.

A pic of a Murano below.

When compared to the ZT-T 180 which I would have as an auto, there is actually 2 MPG difference on paper
