Not even arrived yet...
Hi all,
Ordered a TL diesel in Tempest blue, due to arrive in January.....aarrrgghh, I want my XTrail!!
Anyway, here in the wilds of Murrumbateman, trying to get a handle on the differences between the series 3, 4 and 5 (cosmetically). The reason is that to keep us from going insane with wanting our new car, we play a game on the way into work and home again, XTrail vs Forester, as our decision on a new car came down to these two. The XTrail wins every time...lots more XTrails on the road, with bonus points for a Tempest Blue or a red Forester.
The problem is, when they are zooming past going 200km/h the other way, it is a little hard to tell the differences, so I think my count is inaccurate. I can tell the series 1&2, small boxy things, but the others are a little more difficult.
Is there any big striking differences I can point out to my wife so she can help me spot 'em??
Looking through other threads too, but if there is a single obvious difference, would be 'preciated.
Cheers
Wayne

Re:
G'day Wayne. The time will fly and you'll be seated in the Exy in no time.
There are heaps of mods as well for the exy's on this website and i really encourage to look through them all. They have been helping me make my exy even better.
Jalal and the other senior members of the forum are also a great source of information, and they are more than happy to extend a helping hand.
Anyway mate, read up, and look forward to seeing photo's when you take ownership.
Cheers,
Scot
