      It’s showing on the Motability site, but the Nissan manufacturer site hasn’t updated with Q4 prices yet.

      I hope this is fer real, ‘cos this car was on my very short list until they took it off the scheme a few months ago.

        I got all excited when I saw that a 4th XTrail had been added to the scheme – Tekna would do us perfectly. But it’s just the 7 seat version of the N-Connecta being added.

          I have the Qashkai Epower Tekna on order. The original AP price back in June was £3999. Down £250!

              The back end angles down so sharplky it greatly restricts the space for a boot hoist.

                The Qashqai Tekna ePower is definitely back, but at a highish AP of £3749 ,plus potentially £250 for pearlescent paint, so it could be an upfront payment of £4000?

                The Tekna has quite a few bells and whistles as standard agreed, but the NConnecta is not too badly equipped either, and worth a serious look, for quite a bit less up front – for me, the biggest bell and the loudest whistle over the last 9 months of use has been the electric drive ie ePower!

                  We looked at the epower n-connecta. Had to rule it out for several reasons. The biggest, I think, was no power driver’s seat – I need that.

                    Understood, I am lucky in some respects, in that I just need a boot large enough to accommodate my rollator, and occasionally a mobility scooter and I have a Solax independent hoist if needed!

                    I have had the bells and whistles in previous cars- last one a Tiggy and 5 XC Volvos before that, and don’t miss them too much , but I fully understand specific needs!
