Dodge Nitro

[Stig]

Wife's car is due for replacement. She (we) like stuff that's not mainstream, so quite fancy a Nitro (she currently has a Caliber).

We'd be looking at the 2.8 CRD SXT - any owners/previous owners offer any opinions on them?

They look like a baby Hummer and are cheap and better value than a Jeep.

Hummer!!. Someone mention Hummer. My next acquisition....

[BLUETHUNDER]

H2 I'm afraid. Ive just got to try one!

[Vet Guru]

Had a H3 for a while last year and Loved it!!! RHD model just for the bling factor!!

Personally I quite like them.
I like the tonka toy styling and plenty of room inside.

Oh and they are as cheap as chips

She'd love a Hummer - but an H2 is too big and the H3 is too expensive to buy and run.

Some good deals on pre-reg which has piqued my interest.

Test drive booked for Saturday, so will see....

PS. Exhaust valves still in box! Maybe I should get them fitted for me

Hummer H3 3.7 RHD!

The dodge nitro still is a good choice but I prefer a Jeep Commander 3.0 CRD

i always liked the look of these, i see you can get new ones for 14k on the net, what do people thinks of them, i might trade the C1 in.

On the basis I doubt your car has moved out the garage yet, no real point.

You may want to check you can still get into it after all the excesses of Christmas

Well - you're right about it not having moved at least

Still, in the process of getting buiders quotes for the new garage - so not long now before I can get in and out of it conventionally

Pal has one as a daily and loves it, he's run all manner of US motors over the years and says it's a great fun motor, but is a bit evil on fuel for a daily and considering that it's a diesel
