Nissan Terrano
Nissan Terrano 3.0 Di and SwiftI have a Nissan Terrano 3.0 sport which tows a swift conqueror 645 lux, the outfit towing % is 91 %, this has never been a problem with this vehicle, it has always performed better than any other 4x4 I have owned and used for towing.
I would recommend it as good reliable tow vehicle.
Nissan Terrano 3.0 Di and BaileyCorrection to above entry as wrong caravan selected, should show Bailey Pageant Auvergne Series 5
I've had my 3.0 SVE 5 door for 6 years now and it tows my Bailey Pagent Auvergne very well. Has been all over France including 3 trips down to the Med. near the Spanish border.
Excellent tow car for the money but could be a bit more comfortable and could do with more power for the very long steep hills on the A75 which climb to 1100 metres. Often thought about chipping the engine but never got around to is as the once a year trip hardly seems worth it. Fuel economy is not too bad all things considered. A good value for money honest tug.

Nissan Terrano 3.0 Di aut. and CoachmanI NOW TOW WITH A TERRANO 3.0 AUTO AFTER HAVING A 2.7TDI I THOUGHT THAT WAS GOOD BUT THIS CAR HAS SO MUCH POWER AND MAKES TOWING A PLEASURE. ALOT OF CAR FOR LITTLE MONEY.
Nissan Terrano 3.0 Di aut. and Coachmanjust traded my beloved 2.7tdi in for a 3.0 auto this car is awsome i didnt think towing could get any easier but how wrong i was . great car if you tow a caravan. get one.
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and SterlingI have owned both for 5 years towing to France on holidays every year, great car and cheap to buy, fuel is a issue but cheaper in France just over £ 1.00 per L .
Nissan Terrano 2.4 and AvondaleHad this set up for two years now. Ex hubby seemed to make it look hard work driving from Manchester to Cornwall last year. But I had to do it first time this year. Having never towed in my life, and the first time I have driven more than 40 miles, but had no problems covering the 350miles. Just make sure that you get a good run up to hills and you'll be ok. One particular hill I had to drop to 3rd gear, but it pulled confidently at 40 mph. I didn't know I had the van on the back, I don't even have a stabilizer. At one point I was stopped in traffic on a rather steap hill, but the car set off with no problems. I just need to learn to reverse now.
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and Coachman2.7Tdi SE - 2005 LWB
This car will make you smile - ok, its no pocket rocket, not the coolest 4x4 and doesnt have the most toys... but it is a true off roader and extremely capable.
I'm on my second now, lovely to tow with or drive solo. mechanically simple and cheap to DIY service, engines will run to 150k+ easliy so long as you look after them.
Fuel can be an issue.... but if your gonna have a 4x4 then you will expect it.
If you want a bullet proof car that'll go anywhere anytime you cant go far wrong.... also stick a decent tow-strap in the boot and see how many friends you make towing them of campsites!!! ha ha
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and CompassHaving owned both 2.7tdi SWB& LWB towing a compass omega 544,I found the LWB far superior stability on the road with power, towing is effortlessly.
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and BurstnerThis is our second SWB Tdi terrano, and both have proved reliable and capable. It has enough low down grunt to cope with any road, motorways are easy (but noisy), and even the steepest Peak District climb was managed without fuss. The TDi is a very different beast from the TD that is listed here and should be the only choice when buying a Terrano, but good ones are going to be hard to find in future; and as 4x4 get softer the terrano remains an old school choice, with impressive towing ability and excellent off road ability. Fuel economy is scary though, but this is a car that won't be beaten by either weather or road to get your van to your destination.
Nissan Terrano 3.0 Di aut. and LunarHad to use the lexon as a example, my lunar was not listed,
Terrano 3 l Di manual . First thing is a false oil light problem they seam to have, mine was done under waranty, it involves replacment of one of the oil pressure switches.
This one has replaced my terrano 1996 2.7L 90 bhp model . better fuel mpg than my old one only a mile or so, pulling power is excellent 60 mph any hill deos not miss a beat ! to say its the flag ship model is a little over stated. leather seats but after that average gadgets, cheap compared to other 4x4 in there class, if its as reliable as my other was for 6 years will be very happy.
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and Swifti pull my 530 se with this 90bhp terrano,very stable and safe,if not a bit under powered,22 to the gallon and when you get to a nice speed it just sits there,never bothered by wagons or wind! fantastic
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and Coachmanhad my terrano 4 years been a great tow car keep thinking of changing it but cant find anything as good
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and BaileyMy Terrano 2.7tdi (more power than the td listed on here) pulls this van easily. I can maintain healthy motorway speeds as appropriate and is a very stable set up. As the Terrano is rated to tow up to 2.7 tonnes the 1.6 tonnes of this van is a doddle.
You shouldnt watch the fuel guage though, you'll get upset
Nissan Terrano 3.0 Di and Sterlingonly did 80 miles over the Pennines Terrano pulled Eccles like a dream, France here we come
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and CompassI have only towed the compass a couple of times with the terrano and think it tows very well. lots of power when you need it and im comparing this to my other vehicle a isuzu denver rodeo 3.0td.they are both auto and in my opinion the terrano out powers the isuzu by far.
Nissan Terrano 3.0 Di and Elddiscan't tell you much as just got my Terrano 3 ltr and never knew I had a Oddyssey on the back get one NOW
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and TECI find that it tows very well seeing as it is a big van, on motorways have to look at speedo regularly as the terrano just pulls and pulls up hills no problems as up telegraph in Exeter.Devon only near top do I need to change down to third but it is steep otherwise I do recommend this vehicle.
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and GeistI have only towed the Geist a few times with the Terrano Lwb and it seems to tow very well. It has plenty of power once the turbo kicks in and overtakes well without any sway.
Nissan Terrano 3.0 Di and VanmasterThe terrano 3.0 tdi pulling a Vanmaster accolade 520 is a brillant tow car beats my old Land rover discovery found the disco to be sluggish against the Terrano. so do not take any notice of the so called tv experts comments .they dont know what they are talking about.
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and CompassI have towed with a short wheelbase terrano and now with a long wheelbase terrano,I have found them both good tow cars, the long wheelbase is proving to be the better of the two definately the most economical.This I believe is down to it being a newer model the swb model was M reg the lwb model is 04 which I bought new
Nissan Terrano 3.0 Di and BaileyAbsolutely delighted with the Terrano. Changed to new Bailey Indiana in April 07. Toured Europe (France, Austria, Italy (Cavallino & Lake Como), Switzerland) for 6 weeks and covered 3,500 miles without any trouble whatsoever. Returned 23.5 mpg whilst towing. Thoroughly recommended towcar even if its looks are a bit outdated. outdated
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and Abbeyihave pulled my abbey 416 gts vogue with my lwb 2.7tdi terrano and it is fair to say that you have plenty of power to hand and you get a very smooth and relaxing towing experience.
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and BaileyJust come back from the south of france most of the time i never knew my bailey ranger 550/6 was on the back unlike the mondeo 2.0 petrol i swapped for it well impressed
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and Coachmanmy t2 tows the coachman with no effort just like driving solo great car and economical
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and BurstnerYou state that the 2.7 td is 145kg lighter than the 3.0 Terrano [which it isn't, it's heavier due to the turbo] so your advice re weight ratios has to be pulled from the 3.0 review and advice re performance from this review. I think you've assumed that all 2.7 td's are swb but most are lwb versions. I have a 2.7 lwb version and it pulls the gargantuan 630ts as easily as my previous featherweight Marauder. I just need a lower gear than before on some inclines. It's even steadier in crosswinds and blustery motorway conditions with this twin axle caravan but there is sufficient power to maintain a legal maximum speed under any conditions I've met.
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and BaileyWell satisfied with the Terrano, solid and stable, even when passing large vehicles. Feels safe. Not a nippy car when pulling away, although has plenty of power otherwise. Lots of room inside.
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and SwiftI've pulled the Swift Challenger 530 with my 2.7TDi Terrano LWB - no problems, it tows very comfortably in 2WD on a variety of roads, and it's stable and smooth.
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and Baileyi found the nissan terrano very stable ,but with only 123 BHP its quite laboured going uphill ,when we tow with our Ford Mondeo TDCI 130 BHP you have plenty of power reserve going uphill plus we get more miles per gallon
Nissan Terrano 3.0 Di and BaileyI have used the terrano for two years now first with a Ace viceroy jubilee and now a Bailey Pageant S5 Provence excellent towing car and an absolute bargain to buy .
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and BaileyI have just towed a Bailey Ranger 550 with my Nissan Terrano 2.7, 3244 miles round through France, Belgium, Holland, Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Italy over the last two weeks. The car performed very well and most of the time we didn’t feel the caravan was on tow. Just twice in the whole journey did we have to change down to third gear going up very long steep hills on the German Autobahn. www.1stcaravanhire.com
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and CristallThis is a superb towcar. A real workhorse with some great room in the car. The best thing is the solid feeling, no rocking at the rear when hitting bumps in the road. Never needed 4WD yet as the car had plenty of power. Like many big lump diesels the acceleration isnt great but once the turbo pops in a 2.5k revs it gets going well.
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and BaileyA great towcar for such a caravan. we have done lots of towing and we plan to do lots and lots more,
USed mostly in two wheel drive its still got plenty of power and traction, only use 4x4 on wet muddy campsites but still never needed to use the low ratio 4x4 at all. hope to keep pulling for years to come
Nissan Terrano 2.7 TD and LunarI have had no problems towing my caravan with the terrano, it pulls very well and returns good mpg.
It is steady and is not affected by cross winds or large vehicles. I also like the high driving position, and low running costs--- cheap to service
Nissan Terrano 3.0 Di and Swiftthis is a fab towing car it has'nt struggled in the least.last year we went from calais to vendee region driving 10hrs with very little beaks in between with no problems what so ever and the car itself is so so comfortable
