Nissan X-TRAIL (2001-2004) Review

Category: Small 4x4s 3.5 out of 5

Summary of the Nissan X-TRAIL (2001-2004)

Price Range: £19,245 to £26,795

Assets

Performance, on-road handling, value for money, fun image.

Drawbacks

Loud engines, interior quality.

Verdict

The X-Trail is a good drive on road and more than adequate off-road, but it's not quite as refined as it should be.

Nissan X-TRAIL Review

Reliability and Quality4 out of 5

As a Nissan, the X-Trail should be superbly reliable and durable, and it comes with three years/60,000 miles of warranty just in case the unlikely happens. It's well put together and feels chunky and substantial, although the quality, fit and finish of the interior trim isn't that marvellous and could look tatty after over-enthusiastic family (ab)use.
