CAR-

I buought a CAR - yeah it is NISSAN ALTIMA - sounds good and sounds cheap - NOOOOOOOO. That is a big mistake I ever made, worst of all i was naive to believe on the WORDS OF A SWEET TALKING dealers.

Specially it is a nightmare with the insurance. - yeah they tell you you have to pay 20% on the parts you have to pay- sounds good- it is just 20%. check the cost of the parts first - specially from the NISSAN PARTS SUPPLIERS - ONLY ONE HERE in QATAR- TO REPLACE THREE PARTS - THEIR QUOTE TO THE INSURACNE COMPANY-QIB - 50,000 QR (YES YOU HEARD IT CORRECTLY IT IS FIFTY THOUSAND QR - now you do the sum - 20% of the cost - this is a rip off and i really dont know the answer to this - i feel the most corrupt place on earth - Nissan Servicing- may be the same for other car servicing as well.

AT THE END IT COMES OUT TO BE THE MOST EXPENSIVE CAR TO OWN. DONT FALL IN THE TRAP AS I HAVE BEEN.

MY ADVICE - NEVER EVER BUY NISSAN CAR HERE IN QATAR AS A START.

THESE ARE THE BAD GUYS TO BE STOPPED.
ALWAYS TAKE A INFORMED DECISION- OTHER SIDE OF THE FENCE DONT GET FOOLED BY THE FACE VALUE.

DDongol ...your post is pretty vague...

1. You havent explained why you had to replace 3 parts.

2. You havent explaine what are those 3 parts.

3. Do you have an idea how much it would cost for such parts in similar cars eg: Camry, Accord?

This thread is an indirect Toyota commercial.

I cannot understand what parts cost 50000. If this is true, you can get second hand parts. There is one store (scrapyard) in industrial area specialized in Altima parts. In such case, you do not have to pay 20% since this term applies when you have to buy brand new parts.

Last year I was about to buy an Altima, but I changed my mind in the last minute when a friend of mine who works in insurance advised me not to buy it for expensive spare parts and accordingly the insurance company will give higher rates to insure the car.

Your situation is not clear, did you have an accident and had to replace parts..I wonder which 3 parts can cost 50,000? Are you sure you own a Nissan, not a BMW :)..

Please tell us more , so we can be aware..
