  • Driving it

    5 out of 5 5.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Very smooth - pulls well.

    What's it like to park?

    The reason for writing this review, even though I have only just bought the vehicle, is that I have arthritis in both shoulders and was very nearly put off test-driving it due to the 'Driving & Comfort' Parkers review saying how heavy it was to manoeuvre at low speeds & parking. This is so wrong! Much easier than my old e-class merc and very little strain on my shoulders and arms at all! So if you fancy trying out an X-trail and have upper limb weakness - go for it!
