Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

The Terrano van is based on the car and as a result benefits from good interior comfort levels. speedy engine line-up and decent on-road manners considering the relativelyshort wheelbase. Power comes from a choice of Nissan 2.7 or 3.0-litre turbodiesel and in our opinion the 3.0-litre is the one to opt for particularly if you expect to be freighted.

The driving experience is marred a bit by a long gearstick and ill-defined shift. and engine's very noisy when cold: in-cab storage could be better too. The rear door is single side hinged so notthe easiest to handle —careful you don't park too closely to the object behind — but the 1.65m' loadspace is sufficient for a box of tools or emergency supplies. The 3.0-litre engine gives plenty of performance and the Terrano was very comfortable cruising along at motorway speeds.
