Used 2005 Nissan Murano for Sale

I purchased a used 2005 Nissan Murano in 2008. I loved the styling of it (sleek, but still rugged looking). I wanted a car that could haul a lot of gear and still feel like a daily driver I could take on errands. This certainly fit the bill. The back seats splits 60/40 and folds down on either (or both) sides. The back was large enough for a jogging stroller or a load of groceries on its own, but once you folded the back seat down you could fit a disassembled armchair. (I know, because we did.) The ride quality was smooth, and the car itself was very quiet, even at highway speeds. The six-way drivers' side seat adjustment made for a very comfortable seat, and we often took this car on longer trips instead of a more economical Prius, but because it was so much more comfortable. The AWD made driving in bad weather no problem at all. The only downside to this vehicle was the gas mileage. In city traffic with no A/C running, it got 16 mpg on a good day, and it only went down from there if anything else was utilized (AWD, A/C, bad traffic, etc.). Highway driving was much better, ranging from 23-26 MPG. The poor city-driving gas mileage was the only thing that would make me hesitate to buy again, or recommend. Other than that I'd buy it again in a heartbeat.

I really love the amazing interior color. I love the way it runs. Yes, it's a six cylinder but worth it at the time. The problem is the door handles break off. They're not too expensive to replace and easy to repair. In the years that I've owned this car, I have changed the transmission and engine, but after that, it worked very well.
