Just wanted to find out whether anyone has or has had the 1200cc Nissan AD Van - is it comparable to the probox as a farmers car?

How do you compare Nissan to Toyota? Mayb only in terms of space available inside!
The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

Sidhani umeendesha toyota probox alafu uendeshe wingroad. World of difference between the two cars. Wingroad is quiet when sitted inside and thats all. Probox has better handling and body work feels tighter than wingroad ( no ovyo ovyo body noise on rough road). Considering wingroad is a luxurious car compared to probox, I think toyota make better cars.

aihh! never new that we had even test drivers for proboxes. and that probox would have such a great defender in wazua. slightly out of topic, does that suv probox (called ramion or something) handle like an x6?

I have had the privilege of having both (and i still do. If you can, try the old shape nissan advan, preferably manual and 1500 cc. Quiet car, less attention from the boys in blue,and still cheap. Comparatively cheaper. Just take a look at the streets, majority of the old shape nissan advans (including the earlier model with 2 reversing lights on the boot) are in very very good shape. Compare with similar probox cars... but again, what will you expect when you carry 12 passengers in a probox? or building stones? If however you haul large stuff, you may be better off in the townace. same engine size but larger space. bootsize between ad and probox ...probox is unbeatable. Majority of the guys with the new shaped advans tend to complain maneno ya oilsumps being too low. That said and done, nikuuzie gani? zote ziko smile smile
