I think the X1 will get more and more popular, it is already BMWs 4th best seller after the 1 series hatch, 3 saloon and 5 saloon.

It is also an incredibly comfy car, with the raised drive height, and gloriously comfy when off the run flats.

I have had untold Audis and BMWs over the last 15 years, from the little A2 through to the big beasts like 535d touring and 3.2fsi Quattro avant, and the little X1 is as good as any of them as an overall package.
However, my only regret is going manual, wish I had bought a 20d Auto, but ho hum, getting used to it.

Sport seats are something I will probably fit too, well, actually two weeks ago when I got it I would have said it was a definite, after two weeks the SE seats actually seem alright, I just wish the front of them would lift more under the knees.
