Hi Everybody
The name is Kev, 43 ish , married, three kids and a rough collie. Work as a contracts manager for a drywall contractor and play guitar in a band (hence the name
)
Came across this site quite by accident just after enrolling on the Australian forum, thinking that it was the only X Trail forum out there.
Anyway I pick up my new T31 on Tuesday. I'm not new to Nissan 4x4 after running a Navara D40 Aventura for the last 2 1/2 years which I loved having. Having no need for a pickup any longer and wanting something a bit more economical now diesel has hit an all time high I settled for the standard spec Sport 173 diesel in Twilight grey. I was a bit dissapointed that Nissan had not upgraded the built in Sat Nav with post codes/touch screen/speed cameras etc and didn't feel it was worth the extra pennies for me. I had an Xtrail demonstrator out for a day and have to say I was very impressed with the way it pulled , and the amount of standard spec...particularly that big sunroof. I tow a trailer full of band pa system so I went for the extra powered 173.
I'll be doing about 25K a year so I hope its as reliable as my Nav was. Anyway I'll post some pics when it arrives.
Cheers
Kev
