My dad is looking to buy a truck to carry his bicycles. He has set his mind on the Nissan Navara 2.5 VL. Advisable to buy new or used? This won't be his daily driver.

RM124k for the highest spec. With RM10k discount, roughly around RM114k.

Used market would be around RM86k with 50k km.

Any advise?



UPDATE: Went for the new navara np300. Top spec VL model. Black colour.

If not for daily driving, why spent so much?

Buy used Hilux, it build to last

Overkill , van better

Anyways bicycles don't fit fully in the bed and not secure

Either Isuzu or Toyota

listen to this guy.

better nissan serena folded seat can fit more bicycles,protect rain and dust
also can use for travel

You can fit a bicycle into a decent SUV or wagon, which subsequently can be drive daily.

Why you need a truck for that lol

Yes. Avoid the 4x4 version. If sensor kaput, will expensive to repair.

Every vehicles have their costly maintenance parts.

If u keep on thinking like that better off not buying anything at all

Go for isuzu..cheapest amongst all 4x4.

Navara using an electronic sensor to switch between 4x4 or 4x2. Very sensitive to shocks and water. Had the same problem with my previous Navara b4. Other trucks using mechanical level or switch so very reliable. DMax, Triton and Hilux using this old and trusty method.

Why not just install bicycle rack on roof / back of the car, much cheaper
