Your X1 experience doesn't sound anything like mine, but I have the s28i rear wheel drive.
My X1 absolutely screams anywhere, and I just got 28 mpg on a weekend roadtrip where I could pass bunches of 3 or 4 cars in a few second pass.
I take it to the track, and it's plenty there.
The driveability, smoothness, and quietness is excellent.
I wouldn't mind a diesel, but I only drive 7k or so miles a year, and mine has low end power like diesel.
I didn't want the X28i because just more weight and something to go wrong.
Sorry for your bad luck.
