Re: T31 XTRAILovich After driving a Russian made car (Moskovitch) while stationed in Germany I wouldn't be looking to buying a Russian version of the X-Trail... While putting typing finger to key I will ask if Nissan has now stopped making X-Trails... Here in W A I've noticed our local Mandurah dealer isn't offering new X-Trails for sale, the adverts are leaning toward the Dualis Ti.....
Is the same happening over East ??..... Al

Re: T31 XTRAILovich I can't disagree with your assessment of Russian built cars as I lived there and driven them myself. A brand new car can have a number of catastrophic (and life threatening) failures as soon as you buy them, but that was 20 years ago, I can only hope they have picked-up their game regarding the standards and I also don't think Nissan would have decided to establish a manufacturing plant over there had they not seen an improvement in this regard.
In Sydney there are still heaps of xtrails in card yards at the dealers and I haven't seen that many Dualis's on the road as much as the xtrail, so this pattern could be limited to WA dealers and their financial ability to stock them.
With some dealers going bust due to the poor economy it is a sign of tough times indeed.
P.S. Nissan dealers are going bust in Japan as well and this was confirmed to me by a friend living in Japan and has relations in the car indusrty.
