Gday all.
Looking for opinions from owners of Nissan's X-trail.  I'm thinkin' about
picking one up and wonder how they hold up over time.
How many Km's is the engine, etc, likely to last for if properly maintained

I borrowed my friend's 2005 model over Easter down in Tassie. A very
bright yellow. Nice car to drive, seemed much more nimble the 2004 XT
auto I had been knocking around in.
I found the gearshift quite sweet, the throw was short and it was

Was just watching a TV programme from around 1994, and I found it hilarious
that the State Troopers in Canada used little Suzuki Swift police cars
(which happen to be badged as Pontiacs).  I took a screen grab:

Saw one Tuesday
but what is it that makes it so great besides a different grill and twin

pointless lowering it

If rising crude oil prices is what's forcing the price of petrol up,
why isn't it forcing the price of engine oil up? Over the last 4 years,
the price for 20 litres of the engine oil I buy has gone up a grand

Decided I'd take advantage of the Easter break and do a general service
on the car myself, rather than paying someone to do it. As part of that,
I checked the brake pads. This was the first time in the 7 years and
300,000 odd k's I've done in the commodore since I bought it, that ...

Driving back from the snow, get waved down by two coppers in sleepy
Berridale.   Well there these wo guys just standing there and bugger if
I know which one I should stop at so I go past the first one to pull up
at the next one. This guy says it is a random breath and license check.

The v6 engine is now going to be called lemontec
and the v8 is going to called oil guzzler p76 and lost slick 2.
Base model commodore is going to be called poo
mid range model is going to be called crapful

Anyone see the abandoned Holden Camira in a ditch on the Warrego Highway
just past Kholo. Passed it again today on my way to Toowoomba with my
wife. It has the rear glass smashed today. It still has the wheels and
side glass if anyone is interested.

Got my Lexus IS250 weeks ago and of course I ordered an Express Tag
electronic device for it just as for three of our other cars.
Been through the M2 and M7 and I notice that my electronic device doesn't do
the chirping sound to indicate that I was charged for the use of the
