Is the Nissan Murano really that bad?

I'm looking for a replacement for my old Jeep Grand Cherokee and have £8000 to spend. I've noticed that there are lots of nice looking, lowish mileage Nissan Muranos in my price range.

Admittedly, it's not the best looker, but it does have lots of kit and seems cheap. However, the reviews I've read suggest it is not well liked. Is it really that bad?

Big CVT auto transmission. Rather boat-like to drive. More here: www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/nissan/murano-2005/ Facelifted from 2008: www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/nissan/murano-2008/
