Used 2006 Nissan X-Trail for Sale near British Columbia

one of the best selling cars nissan has ever produced won the suv of the year award for 2006 despite having really strong competitors in the industry. its solid built. its easy to drive. maintaining it doesnt really burn a hole in your pocket. a very versatile and one of the most agile suvs in the current market. superb traction, handling and braking. feels like driving a normal car. AWD 4WD features works awesome. i had much fun with this car on the beach. eheheheh even a 2.0 QR20DE with CVTC variable valve timing, it's major advantage lies in it's CVT built gearbox. unlike regular gearboxes out there, it doesnt have a set of different gear ratios. it only as 2 pulleys which acts as an infinite ratio, a variable transmission. with such efficiency makes this car has the capability to speed even at low revs, thus making it a much lesser fuel consuming vehicle

I would not buy this car if you live anywhere in Canada where the winters get temperatures below -15 degrees and or they use salt on the roads. I spent way too much money in two years replacing bearing after bearing on this vehicle. The heater is inadequate for colder days and if you have a high moisture climate that turns cold - forget about your doors working! .. and YES .. even if you lubricate your hinges and locks etc!

I love the x-trail. Bought second hand after trading in my Mazda, we needed to upgrade to a more family friendly car, and love it. Even thought it is an auto, the gear changes are flawless, no jerking around. The car is good on fuel, lots of room, and cheap to service as well.

Performance is not so good, but you should consider that this in not a built-to-run model. I own the AWD model, and it is great for bumpy streets, rainy weathers, and light off-road. It is also a quite good family car for the city, it rides nice, fuel consumption is just, and interior roominess if very good.

Average performance Good build quality Average cost of ownership Average styling Good car to get you from A to B with no hassles. Can also get you up and snowy mountain roads. Overall : reliable car to have, ideal if yoou have a skiing family.
