Verdict
SUV 5 places à V6 3.5 de 234 ch et transmission intégrale, au coffre de 438 litres. Les retours publiés sont rares : Auto123 juge le V6 très sûr mais signale un boîtier de transfert pouvant fissurer et fuir, et quelques cas de boîte CVT défaillante. Caradisiac note des exemplaires à partir de 3 500 euros, avec souvent 200 000 km ou plus : l'entretien suivi prime sur le kilométrage.

Yearly medians of each country's listings (AutoScout24, in euros; United Kingdom: cinch dealer, in pounds), over years with at least 3 listings. Useful to judge an import (add transport, inspection and registration).
| Country | Range | Median | Gap vs France | Listings |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Germany | €2,445 – €3,100 (2005 to 2007) | €2,990 | — | 16 |
| Spain | €4,500 – €6,500 (2006 to 2007) | €6,200 | — | 6 |
Median gap shown only when the country's estimate covers the same years as the French one. Add transport, roadworthiness test and registration.
You are importing the car to:
Import penalty (malus) in France
- The CO₂ malus follows the scale of the year the vehicle was first registered, in France or abroad (WLTP or NEDC scale depending on its registration certificate).
- For an imported used car, it is reduced by a flat-rate discount based on its age in months (scheme in force since 1 March 2025). The weight malus also applies on first registration in France.
- Production ended in 2008: a car first registered before 1 January 2015 has no malus.

Inspection checklist
Nissan Murano I — inspection checklist
Things to check
- Regarder sous la voiture : traces d'huile sur le boîtier de transfert ou autour du filtre à huile.
- Essayer la boîte CVT à froid et à chaud : patinage, à-coups, bruit anormal ; demander si le fluide a été remplacé.
- Tester tous les accessoires : lève-vitres, poignées de porte, sièges électriques, climatisation (pannes électriques citées par Auto123).
- Vérifier le démarrage à froid : le moteur peut hésiter selon Auto123.
- Exiger le carnet d'entretien : sur un exemplaire à 200 000 km, l'entretien suivi est le critère décisif (Caradisiac).
Questions to ask the seller
- La boîte CVT a-t-elle été vidangée ou réparée, et à quel kilométrage ?
- Y a-t-il des fuites d'huile connues (boîtier de transfert, filtre à huile) ?
- Avez-vous le carnet d'entretien complet et le dernier contrôle technique ?
Test-drive tip: read the fault codes
A warning light that is off proves nothing: a fault may have been cleared just before the viewing. A Bluetooth OBD2 scanner, plugged in under the steering wheel and read on your phone, shows stored codes and whether all emissions readiness tests have run since the last reset.
