Hi everybody,
greetings from Prague, Czech Republic.
Just purchased new R51 edition LE with Executive pack (IT pack - different name on some markets - sat nav, camera, keyless ignition...)
Car is black with dark gray leather, only option engine - 2.5DCi, model 2008 (turnsignals in mirrors, little styling improvements).
I purchased Webasto independent heating/ventilation with remote control together with the car and winter rims & bridgestone blizzak winter tyres.
Plan to little bit invest in accessories - sump guards, expedition roof racks, maybe stronger suspension and take to my favorite destinations like Morocco...

Happy so far...

Tomas

Welcome to the board, lucky you and the diesel. Check out blink32's page and his build up for ideas. Enjoy your new monster.

Welcome! Always nice to see the international reach of our little truck. Some day we'll get that CDi motor here in the states, but until then my 52HP VW Jetta Diesel will just have to do... :wink:

It´s funny to see, how much you would like to get diesel engine while here at Europe is not possible to buy your engines at all! I know several friends, who would like to get Pathfinder with 8 cylinder and as is not on our market, they buy other brands...

Anyway, Nissan DCi is our second diesel (we have Primera with 2.0 diesel) and really this new one is excellent - can compare it with Toyota LC120 3.0 and is very smooth and good torque (with manual shift). When is running, is hard to recognise typical diesel sound or vibrations. Smooth and good.

Welcome aboard, Tomas. It kills me every single time I'm outside the US and see all the great diesel versions of pretty much every vehicle we have here. It will be a happy day when we start getting them here, at least for me.

My girlfriend is from Decin by the way.

As I said just before - you want our diesels, we would like to get 6 or 8 cylinders and your XM radio etc. :)

You have our girls, and what we got? :) Yes, I know - McDonalds :)
Regards your girlfriend from north Bohemia...
We have lot of family members at Oklahoma, Nebraska and L.A...
