I've had 2 X-Trails: First one manual/petrol was so surprised with its off road ability. We went off road with a Suzuki swift and a Rav 4 and our car (x-trail) was the only one to make it all the way. My current vehicle is 2009 Diesel/manual and it is fantastic. A lot of people don't realise how good it is off road

Nice video. Also own a T30 (manual transmission; 2008; beige), as of a few weeks. Live in Nairobi, and have taken it to our National Park, here. Good off-roading in that park actually! Want to ask you if you plan on modifying your current firm mud guards for more flexible alternatives? A few good axle testers, or steep drops could cause some damage. Something I'm considering myself. I see someone already asked my question on tyre pressure, below. Thank you for this video!

Hi mate I love your videos I am looking to downsize my Land Rover discovery 2 td5 auto to an xtrail as I don’t use the disco off-road enough to justify the maintenance and repair costs.

Your input would be much appreciated Cheers

@ruggedlife 2 жыл бұрын

Hey mate, personally I would pick the T30 but that's just me. I feel it's more solid and looks better too. It also has less technology in it so less to go wrong. I know the T31 has got stuff like hill decent etc but personally, driving technique will get me just about anywhere the T31 will go. I'm old school and don't need creature comforts. As you may have seen in a few of my videos, I have a 71' Series 2a 109. I would rather a diesel with an auto but not sure if you can get that in a T30. Auto because they are better offroad due to the lack of low range gearing. I have a video explaining this if you haven't seen it yet. 1.3T to tow is within the Xtrail's capability.

Tyres and lift make a huge difference. CVTs dont perform well offroad is what i heard. They are not reliable enough and they are more engineered for efficiency and comfort. It doesnt really mean it wont perform offroad though. Ive also see a lot of CVTs go offroad and they are fine. I guess it all depends of how rough terrain and how you drive it as well.

I've been researching cars like this for about 3 weeks now, high and f'in low lol. I got down to the Rav4 mk2 and Freelander 2 with my small around £3k budget. I hadn't even considered an xtrail until yesterday, I wasn't feeling very positive because everything I'd looked at has common experience negatives, like the Freelander 2 having dif bearings issues and Haldex issues if you say boo to it and the Rav4 Diesel with its hot start issues. Anyway, so far after about 6 hours looking into, xtrails....... Nothing........ NOTHING! Is that your experience with yours other than general wear and tear items obviously? It can even off road better than what I've seen a Freelander 2 do. The xtrail appears to be a proper 4x4 without being a proper 4x4, so capable! Is there a good owners forum for the xtrail?

@ruggedlife 3 жыл бұрын

Hey mate. Any vehicle which has the ability to send power to any of its 4 wheels will have some sort of offroad capability. Its major limiting factor will always be its 4wd system and ground clearance. Im not familiar with the Captiva's 4wd system so cannot tell you how capable offroad it will be. One thing I know though is that your ground clearance will definitely be your limiting factor just like most SUVs. Try to find out if there are raised suspension options for your vehicle.

Hi, thanks for such a quick response. It has a similar ground clearance and 4wd system to the Xtrail minus the "Lock" function. It's already sitting on a set of 235 55 19s which are 29". There are some lifted springs available but these are very limited.

@ruggedlife 3 жыл бұрын

No worries. Your tyre diameter is same as mine but your rim size is too big for 4wding. That lock function will make a huge difference. As for lift options then just get the highest you can get. Im assuming that will only be around 25-30mm.

Hi Ruggedlife. I need a 4x4 to go to a house in the mountains where the road is very bad. I've found a 2005 T30 but can't try it off road, you know it uphill I can go slow to get on the rocks. Thank you very much Francesco

@ruggedlife 2 жыл бұрын

Have a look at the videos in my offroad compilations and also the practical 4wding playlist. It will give you an idea of what it's capable of. If you want slow and controlled on rocks, get an auto.

How does she go over severe corrugations? Tool my exes 2020 Rav 4 down Jim Falls road last year and had to turn around a few hundred meters in cause I reckon it may have fallen to bits if wr continued. And the suspension, just didn't feel capable. Is it a fair comparison?

@ruggedlife Жыл бұрын

I haven't taken it to severe corrugations and I wouldn't that's when you need a 4wd with suspension more designed to cope with such terrain. Any softroader isn't designed for severe corrugations. It might take it but it won't last long.

@@ruggedlife thanks for your response. Good to know. Do you reckon aftermarket suspension would sort that or hard to know? Impressed with how capable she is.

Fuel consumption definitely as expected with bigger tyres. Not really with handling but my springs and struts are stiffer than oem.

Those CVTs are not designed for offroad or towing. They are for efficiency and comfort. Not saying that all CVTs that tow and go offroad will fail but the risk is higher and have heard and read a lot that failed.
