Nissan NP200
Nissan’s NP200 occupies a sweet spot for South Africans who want a bakkie that doesn’t guzzle fuel or eat up your capital. Forget the Hilux and Ranger tax — this is the bakkie for hustlers, plumbers, and anyone needing daily utility in tight city spaces. It’s not pretending to be anything fancy, just a tough little workhorse. You get a choice of a 1.6 petrol or a 1.5 DCi diesel, both with stick-shifts or a semi-auto. Don’t bother looking for a new one; not a single fresh NP200 sits on dealer floors. Every one of the 58 available is pre-owned, ranging from 2010 models up to 2024, and prices sit between R84,900 and R264,900. On paper at least, most buyers are wise to avoid the bottom of the barrel, with the median at R184,948 — that’s a no-nonsense, value-driven buy in this league. The 1.6 A/C Safety Pack is everywhere — 24 out of the 58 are this variant, priced from R139,000 up to R259,950. It’s the one you’ll find parked outside the hardware store on a Saturday morning, usually being sold by someone who’s moving up the food chain. Next up, the base 1.6 8V A/C Safety Pack, which maxes out at R264,900 if you believe some sellers’ optimism. Mileage averages 117,757 km, which is exactly what you’d expect: hard graft, not soccer-run fluff. Diesel 1.5 DCi models are unicorns (just four listed), but for long-haulers, they’re worth hunting down. The real draw here is size — try squeezing a Hilux into Braamfontein parking and you’ll see why the NP200 doesn’t sit on lots for long. Low running costs keep it honest, and that’s the point.
Nissan
Nissan’s place in the South African car scene is a curious one. It’s not chasing the cutthroat budget crowd, but you won’t catch anyone calling it premium either. What Nissan does well is offer options for the buyers everyone else seems to forget — the folks who need a bakkie that won’t complain about Monday jobs in Midrand, or a starter SUV that doesn’t break the bank in Benoni. With 250 used models on the market, from a wallet-friendly R64,500 to a punchy R769,900 and a median at R219,500, you’re looking at a brand that actually covers the real-world spectrum of SA motoring. Not a single new car in sight, though. It’s a symptom of Nissan’s current silence on the new-model front — so punters are trading what’s already out there, and who can blame them? The NP200 is the crowd-pleaser here, with 58 examples running between R84,900 and R264,900. It’s what the NP200 should have been from the start — a no-nonsense, recognizable workhorse you can spot outside any Joburg tile shop. The Navara, stretching to R769,900, wants to play in the same sandpit as Ranger and Hilux, but it needs to offer more than just a different badge if it hopes to convince anyone. Magnite starts at R188,500, so if you pack smart, you’re in a compact SUV for less than many rivals ask for a hatch. Qashqai and X-Trail mop up the upper end, but SUVs are the clear favourite here, with petrol still king. Nissan’s real win is the sheer mix across price points — and for South Africans hunting honest value, that matters.
