It never ceases to amaze me on how little pride the general public have in their cars... it takes all of 30 mins to clean a relatively clean car out and if you really don't want to do it, it costs like 20 quid to get it done.

[@baronvonjo1929]

I feel like for most of us Americans we just see it as expensive wallet sapping appliances we use because that's the only option for us. People just don't enjoy the car owning experience anymore with each passing day. I like to keep my car clean. But my current Honda Fit has been very unreliable. It's hard to take any pride in it. I make sure it's kinda clean and the orange paint honestly hides dirt very well. When I start seeing streaks from rain I clean it.

Matt ,Matt, Triangle tyres. I used to be HGV 1 and,ran a set of Firestone tyres, 160k no punctures, nada, nowt, when they were done , Triangles. Same driver, same truck, same work, and totally worn out at 48k that’s all kilometres but they were rubbish I would never put them on a car.

[@Rapscallion2009]

Underrated cars. They suffer from the perception that they're just a stretched Qashqai. In reality they're altogether more refined and relaxed cars with a less sporty, more relaxed character. Also more dependable (the QQ was built in the UK, the XT wasnt). The trim level you have (ntec, i think) there is the one you want - all the goodies except the over firm leather seats and illogical 19" alloys of the Tekna. The 1.6 engine copes rather well with the car's bulk and is darn economical, and you have the 7 seats. This will sell all day long.

[@thisiszaphod]

Well, we're here. Massive underspent this time?

[@snbala]

Used to work for Nissan when these were quite new, not Nissans but just rebranded Renaults, even the batteries say Renault on them. We also had a lot of issues with X trails with them returning. Regardless they sell and that’s what matters in the trade.

[@MuscleBandit]

The comment I was looking for, inside info! Cheers.

[@Rroff2]

I've always been a bit puzzled by the X-Trail - it is like it wants to be a light off-road/utility vehicle but it definitely isn't. Though I do like the look of the new one - if they'd paired it up with something serious engine wise and tougher duty suspension, etc. I'd have probably bought one - I'm struggling to find something which hits the spot as a replacement for the old Pathfinder (R51).

[@jdmguy44]

Renault don't manufacture batteries....

[@snbala]

@@jdmguy44 didn’t say they did, just said it says Renault on it. All doesn’t manufacture their parts, they get it from other manufacturers and put their name on it. Don’t need to tell me fella, been in the motor trade for over 10 years to know how they work.

[@68404]

They share a chassis with Renault (and the diesel engines come from the latter) but the X trail is Nissan, including all the petrol engines, the gearboxes, the 4WD mechanics. The X trail was developed in Japan by Nissan. The Renault Koleos is the Renault version, but this too was developed by Nissan and built by Renault Korea. My car has Yuasa on the battery. I guess Yuasa is building cars now..

[@bm7760]

I bought a 2012 X-Trail T31 2.0 petrol new on run-out (last of the boxy model). $30,000NZ (£15,000). We had that car ten years. Did over 250,000 trouble-free kilometers in it, and explored every inch of NZ together. Might be seen as a dull dad car but it meant a lot to us and was part of the family.

[@siammasud5888]

The box-shaped X-trail is also special to me. I learned to drive with my dad with it.

[@TheGregpot2000]

Haha the climate is a pet peeve of mine as well! Every car I get in with automatic climate control. It's always on manual fan flow, hi or lo. Set the temp and forget about all year long! 20.5 for me!

[@RichardSibley-n1n]

Always enjoy you're witty comments 😀

[@carcontrolcommitment]

I have one of these, also with 100k on it. So long as you change the oil every 10k miles and not as per service schedule 18k miles they'll be fine. They like a long run once in a while, and like all diesels hate stop start traffic. It's got 128hp by the way. You probably should check the timing end oil seal, as I suspect that's leaking at that age. And while there change the timing chain and tensioners. Normal interval is 180k miles for that. Finally, if its a bit sluggish to start when cold, change the glow plugs. They are as boring as chuff, but they do what you want them to, all day long.

Heaps of these in Australia, mainly 2.5 petrol with CVT. Known to be prone to head gasket failure with the CVT very unreliable. A major problem is the placing of the A/C condenser behind the dashboard which is an all day job to replace. Cheap as but, so the money you save on purchase you can put towards repairs.
