·Right first off I am completely mad. No need to question my sanity or lack therefore of. I bought my nissan Xtrail just over a year ago and love it. I have brought it off road to a good degree and it has never let me down.
So the other night I am watching videos of people in X Trails Worldwide offroading on YouTube. And I think to myself well it looks like its more capable than I could have possibly imagined. So I decide to myself with a few relativley minor modifcations it could be made into an expedition class off roader.
My plan is this.
To modify my Xtrail (only slightly mind).
Tyres, Raising suspension, snorkel, roof tent, underbody protector, Grille Gaurd, winch and spot lights.
After having completed that,
hop in the Chunnel and drive.
Across europe into Russia, Khazackstan, Mongolia, Siberia Ukraine.
Now bear in mind that these areas have some of the roughest terrain known to man. Yours talking crazy mud, rock climbing, hill accents river crossings unbelievable weather etc etc etc.
So to get to the point. do you all think I will come back in a box or do you think that the X trail can do it?
Nissan seem to think there is no limit to what the car can do. But they would say that. The distinct disadvantage is the lack of a low range box. But on proper tyres I dont think that this would be a major issue. What do you guys think?
