I have to remind myself often that it doesn't have the ground clearance of regular 4x4's.
Also as I mentioned elsewhere I quite like the sound of the engine when accelerating.

Hi Yohans,
Thanks for that. I am quite interested in the performance of the X1 in snow, the one thing I was not able to try out in my test drive. I often go up into the highlands here in winter where snow and ice can be a real problem in a 2x4. I am hoping that putting on a good set of winter tyres coupled with the 4x4 system will work out well.
