Is a petrol X-Trail any good?
You've pulled your recommendation of the X-Trail but most [if not all] the reliability issues seem to effect the diesel models. Would you still recommend the 2.0L petrol [albeit underpowered]?

The problems the 2.2d X-Trail seemed to be suffering from seemed to die off, so while not re-instating the enthusiastic recommendation I would still put it on some lists as a reasonable 2nd hand SUV.
Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.
