START by identifying what it is you want from your car, then test drive each one and assess how well each meets your needs and wants. The X-Trail, Forester and Outback are all good choices, but the Outback is a little different to the Forester and X-Trail, as it's a Liberty that's been raised to give it some extra ground clearance. It doesn't ride as high as the other two, so wouldn't be as good if you want the visibility a high-driving position gives you. A test-drive would instantly reveal that.
