I'm going to be honest, just been reversed into by a Pug 307, and the navara rear bumper folded like weak tin, such as the bolt support to the chassis frame has penetrated the steel chrome bumper inside out, not seen that before and wouldn't of done on my 2013 d40.
There's something quite not right with the d23's, they're not as strong as previous and the engine isn't what I thought it would be either having last week put in a 1Lt bottle synthetic oil at 8 k miles to the midway mark on the dip stick finding a glug of emulsified white oil in the cam housing filling point. Does any body else find the engine noisy and chattering like tappets in a can under acceleration. I love the vehicle and the design , it's like chalk and cheese to old models.... But it's lost it's robustness in the making.
