Hi Ben,

We have just taken delivery of this vehicle.

All good as far as I can tell from first drive.

Nissan Elgrand (E50 series)

The Nissan Elgrand was released in 1997 and manufactured until 2002 and served as Nissan's main people mover. Available in 7 or 8 seat, and rear wheel drive or 4WD configuration, this versatile van quickly became very popular for its efficient use of space and wide selection of options.

Standard or optional features can include ABS brakes, single or dual airbags, power sliding door, dual zone climate control, parking sensors, seats foldable into a number of configurations, single or dual display monitors, dual sunroofs, and part or full leather interior.

The Elgrand was available in RWD or 4WD and had a diesel turbo or petrol engine option, both were changed once in the model life cycle to newer and improved versions. The chassis types corresponding to each engine and drive train are as follows:

3,200cc turbo diesel QD32ETi: AVE50 (RWD), AVWE50 (4WD).
3,0000cc turbo diesel ZD30DDTi (newer version) : ATE50 (RWD), ATWE50 (4WD).
3,300cc petrol VG33E: ALE50 (RWD), ALWE50 (4WD).
3,500cc petrol VQ35DE (newer version): APE50 (RWD), APWE50 (4WD).

There is also the FLGE50 (RWD) and FLGWE50 (4WD) chassis type available in either newer variant petrol or diesel turbo, this was the rare long wheel base, high roof camping model.

All engines other than the 3.5L VQ35DE were shared with the Australian delivered Nissan Navara.
