Deurdat Nissan nou nie meer die handrat inbring nie lyk dit my amper onmoontlik om 'n aanvaarbare GL te kry - ek was by die stealers om te sien of ek nie ma 'n nuwe GL moet oorweeg nie ma dis nou nie meer moontlik nie :thumbdown: Nou sit ek met 'n moewiese dilemma - ek is nou besig om GROOT aan te jaag en te doen wat ek gese het ek sal noooooit doen nie !! Ek hoop van harte jul ouens se "praises" is reg oor die "nie handrat" ene :pray: .

Jan, jy gaan glad nie spyt wees nie. Geniet dit en laat weet ons hoe dit gaan.

Terloops, ek dink dis baie moeiliker om jou rugby span te ruil as om van manual na auto te gaan. Dis bloot net 'n gewoonte wat mens by manual hou...en dit verander baie vinnig sodra jy die lekker van die auto geproe het.

I'm in a dilemma and kinda made a decision that I don't wish to haunt me - but according to everyone's input it seems unlikely.I just got a heck of a good deal on a GRX that let me put pen to paper (although I can still pull out till/by Wednesday).
The GL's I saw all had too many Km's on the clock and/or was way too expensive comparison wise. The only GL with low km's was more expensive than a brand new GRX ? Nissan's got a special until Friday this week (10 or 12 units - whichever comes first) and when I was there this afternoon only 3 were still available. The special is at a discount of almost R 150 000 :surprised: . I know I will (at some stage) have to switch to an auto in the future (due to discontinuation on all new models) but I wished I could have postponed this a while longer. Unless someone can help me with (or show me in the direction to) a decent 4.8 GL before Wednesday, (that will be a better decision than the one above) it seems like this is the way I'm gonna go.
On the one hand I'm doing what I didn't want to do but on the other hand its just too much of a good deal to ignore ?
Ps. I envy you Herbie but maybe I must try this out (on behalf of all our manual believers) and see if everyone else is talking the truth :think: !?

Simpatie met jou besluit Jannie!

Kyk manne, NOU is Jannie se kop gesmokkel!
Hy sit op 'n berg by Hermanus en staar in die see in nadat hy Vrydag 'n GRX in JHB gery het en 'n GL in die Kaap ...

Sal maar moet wag en kyk wat dop uit die besluitnemingstoel uit !

Voorspoed
