The NISSAN X-TRAIL (2001-07) 5DR STATION WAGON 2.0I SPORT AUTO is a practical five-door compact SUV, with a raised driving position and estate-car space. In the UK, it belongs to an early wave of family-friendly crossovers: more rugged-looking than a hatchback, yet easier to live with than a large 4x4. mycarcheck.com records 31 look-ups covering 22 distinct VINs, a useful snapshot rather than a huge sample. The cars checked averaged £1,300 in private-sale value and 101,000 miles, with annual mileage around 5,000. They had an average of just over four previous keepers, so condition and service history deserve close attention. Families and couples seeking an affordable, versatile car can use the X-Trail for school runs, shopping and weekend trips, with space for passengers and luggage. Against the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4, it offers space and character, though this older petrol automatic may consume more fuel than a small hatchback.
