I am really impressed considering I am still running it in.

Hoping to get it under 7 soon.
An update. Did a few hundred miles the last few days of mostly open road and......6.9 l/100km average. Yippee...

Had it down to 6.4 for a while but I did a fair bit of hill climbing in the highlands hunting for snow so that pushed it up a wee bit again.

Found some snow but it was too high up...and the X1 is many things but not quite a mountain goat.

Jokes aside the X1 impresses me more and more every time I take it for a long run.

Bad bits: very little except I keep hitting my head on the tail gate, not sure why as it does open quite wide.

Also there are two leaf traps just below the windscreen I cannot get my hands in to clean
