X3
Sold the 5 Series due to my wife’s disability getting in and out. Got hold of a four month old X3 2.0d M Sport with M Sport pro package, Visibility and Tec packs. It really is a great place to sit, it’s comfortable and feels solid on the move, I searched all over to get the colour combo of Sophisto Grey with Oyster leather. Harmon Kardon 600watt with 16 speakers sounds the business.

I’m not usually into SUV’s but that is quite nice indeed, like the colour combination too, good choice

Had the X3 detailed and Ceramic coated yesterday so should make it a lot easier to clean

I'm not a fan of SUVs either, but as SUVs go that looks really smart.
I know it's how BMW made them, but why attach M badges to a 2 litre turbo-diesel?

Currently running an X3M40d, had it for 2 years now and waiting on our new LCI model being delivered, have went for a 40d again but have went for Tanzanite blue this time.

We had an X1 for a fortnight while the dealers sorted the cock up with our car, while the X1 is a very capable car, the road noise at speed on motorways is horrendous and they were not runflats

It goes with the body kit I suppose. I could live without the badges but the kit on the doors also the front and rear valance’s make the car look a whole lot better.

Yes the bodykit does enhance the looks, plus you get the M-Sport seats.

X3’s really are a great all rounder and far more 5 series in quality than 3 series
I love mine, had it 6 years now from new and I think the light interiors really lift the ambience of them
Enjoy yours

The main reason we bought the latest X3 as it’s interior suspension and other parts are lifted from the 5 series and as I sold a 2017 G30 to buy the X3 it made sense. A tad smaller but the dashboard controls etc are all 5 series in qualityearthdweller wrote: ↑Sat Oct 23, 2021 2:39 pm X3’s really are a great all rounder and far more 5 series in quality than 3 series
