BMW X3 | Independent Car & Driving Review | Vanarama.com 

Would love to know what engine you went for!? My wallet is saying go 20D but my soul is screaming 30D haha! Also did you get a 2021 version or earlier?

@@ibraheemtoure1201 ok it was March 2021 and I’d just settled on getting an X3 after first considering an X1. I found a BMW approved used dealership with this mint condition three year old (2018) G01 xdrive 30d Msport in phyton blue with cognac interior and with almost every conceivable extra fitted. There had been only one previous owner who was a BMW employee so it had been pampered. It cost me £30K. As you know during the pandemic the price of used cars was rock solid. But I needed to own this car, it was love at first sight. I mainly bought it for long trips rather than commuting and the larger engine makes motorway driving effortless. I consistently get just over 38mpg in eco mode, which is mind blowing to me for such a big car, and it really does feel like a big car - so spacious and comfortable inside.

I just guess! Maybe you should upgrade the software!? Or is it related to any kind of driving modes?

Why did you bother to watch at all?

@@jimhobbs461 As I stated, I am trying to understand/appreciate these vehicles but can't . Why did you bother to comment?

Probably the best car reviewer around! Bravo!
