[Trev Davies]

Hi Guys, I love the look of the Largo and all the detail with it and how its so fantastic that I have put a deposit on a Nissan Largo 2.0ltr TD Diesel and gotta go and pick it up on Saturday 20th of October, im Paying out £1400.00 for mine, is there anything I should look for that I should be on the look out for?


gotta travel from Plymouth south west to St Helens Liverpool to get it, its on Gum Tree at the moment still listed if you wanna see it

Hi Trev. Welcome to the forums.

Most of the usual applies. Check for bad rust underneath, wheel arches, etc. Look around the bottom of the engine for oil leaks or water leaks. Test drive it at least until the temp gauge hits about midway and stays there hopefully.

Most Largo's are great and well looked after but you do get some badly looked after ones. Most problems are easily sorted if your handy with a spanner.

Check for any oil or water leaks leaks as some of these can be very costly to repair. Also make sure every thing works including the aircon.
Check for any bangs, knocks etc when going over bumps. Whilst these are normally cheap and easy to fix may show signs of lack of servicing.

I seem to get a strange noise from the back lately over humps, not all the time but definitely a new noise - thought it was tools in the boot but now I'm not so sure
