Re: Why did you buy an Xtrail ?
Hi,
I only use the "auto" feature when it rains. I find the acceleration to be much more powerfull in "auto" mode, however pertol consumption is a bit higher than normal.
Cheers

Re: Why did you buy an Xtrail ?
I needed something spacious and not expensive (under $35K), so I thought about the X-Trail and the CRV initially.
I didn't like CRV's gloomy interior design, and I found the X-Trail to be more spacious than the CRV at the back, for my baby twins .
No regrets so far.

Re: Why did you buy an Xtrail ?
We bought (pick it up mid July) our X-trail for the chance to get a bit further out into the bush. It had more of the things we wanted and needed than anyother of the compact 4x4's we looked at.
We go Geocaching all the time and finding some of those suckers needs more than the current ED falcon.
We have bought a 2004 Ti-L and being the end of the finacial year we got a great deal on heaps of extras.
Just wish I had it now...3 weeks seems so far away.

Re: Why did you buy an Xtrail ?
Bought ours in Feb this year. My wife an I were looking for a 4wd for about 4 months to replace my S pack Commodore and to be our camping car, kid carrying vehicle etc. I sold my commodore once I got married as my wife didnt like the car as it went to fast for her. My wife sister gave my wife a list of thing to look for in reguard to baby's, kids etc from her sister. The biggest one - being able to put a pram in the boot + baby crap. The trail by far had a huge luggage area which sold us as im using the wife's festiva as a camping car and im sure that things a tardis, due the amount of stuff we pile into it. Im scared to close the rear hatch, as I'm scared the back windows is going to fly out at me every time I close it with the camping gear inside. So im looking forward to have some space.
We shopped around forester xt(Didnt like the clutch), crv (too small inside,dodgy 4wd), trail (no luggage space) , excape/tribute (no manuals, 6cl).
We test drove it almost immediately we both knew that it was what we wanted. I cant wait now for the delivery... 18 days to go..
