It’s not reference-grade but is sufficiently loud and engaging for my in-car garage parties to have resumed.ĭate acquired: August 2015 Part Two: Bang Or BucksĪccording to popular wisdom, no-one buys base models anymore. This top-spec model adds a decent amplifier and higher quality drivers and tweeters to transform the sound from gloopy to glistening. Regular readers who manage to suffer through my whinging and general first-world problem-mongering may recall that I moaned the base ST Qashqai’s sound system is right up there with a Taiwanese phone for sonic satisfaction. Even so, it cruels the tank’s range from 700km or so to mid-400s and is closing in on double the meaningless combined ADR figure of 6.9L/100km.īut if the bowser-wowser in me sucks it up, takes it on the chin and sees the glass as very much half full, I can skirt the clichés and say that me and the petrol Ti are as happy as fat kids with a slice of you know what. Where the diesel was sipping in the mid-eights, my first measured tank of this thirsty bastard came in at 13.1L/100km, which admittedly included some hard driving for photography. Plus the power delivery was quite laggy, so throttle response, especially in heavy traffic, was a little lazy. It was agreeably grunty in the mid-range, as modern turbo-diesels invariably are, but too loud and vibey at idle. See, my recently departed oil-burner SUV was, if I can continue to torture the cake metaphor in powertrain terms, more like Rocky Road than whipped cream. Has anyone ever said to you, “Hey, please come over for my birthday party we’ll eat, drink, dance, and best of all, there’ll be a cake! In a glass case, of course, purely for viewing purposes, because, you know, we can’t have our cake and eat it too…”Īnyway, my changeover after three months from diesel Qashqai ST to a top-spec petrol Nissan Qashqai Ti model made me recall this irksome cliché. I think I understand the sentiment, but it’s still a pretty moronic expression. Such as the old line about having one’s cake and eating it, too. SOME clichés really irk me, so I tend to avoid them like, well, the plague.
