Seven seats and a V6 in Diamond Black -- the Nissan Pathfinder ST-L is the kind of car that does school runs on Monday and road trips on Saturday without breaking a sweat.

Under the bonnet sits a 3.5-litre V6 paired with Nissan's smooth X-tronic CVT, giving you effortless power delivery whether you're merging onto the freeway or crawling through Nunawading traffic. It's a combination that makes 113,000 km feel barely worn in.

The ST-L trim level earns its keep with black leather throughout, a panoramic sunroof, and enough space for seven adults -- or five adults and enough luggage for the family holiday you've been putting off. Third-row access is genuinely usable, not the optional-extra punishment it is in some rivals.

Being a 2015 build with the X-tronic gearbox and FWD layout, running costs are reasonable for a vehicle this size. No complicated four-wheel-drive systems to service, and the V6 returns decent economy on highway runs where the Pathfinder really finds its rhythm.

In Diamond Black with black leather, it carries itself with a quiet authority on the road. Not shouting for attention -- just looking sharp and getting things done.

If you have a growing family, a lifestyle that demands more boot space, or just an honest preference for not folding yourself into a compact, this is the one that makes practical feel premium.

They say buying a 7-seater is the fastest way to volunteer yourself for every school carpool, sports day pickup, and interstate cousin visit. The Pathfinder says: fair deal.
