That's pretty good. I'm still undecided. X1 or 328d. I drove both for a short test run yesterday (5-10 minutes) . I started the run out resetting the mpg counter. I got 23 mpg in the x1 in mixed driving from a cold start, which I felt was good from a cold start and a short run. Driving style was relaxed. The same run in the diesel registered about 38! But documented problems with the n47 give me pause for concern. I really like the seating arrangement in the X1, bu the diesel in the 328d. I wish BMW offered the d in the X1.

Fortunately, or unfortunately, I'm part of the furloghed federal workforce, so I'm just waiting for that to lift before I make my final decision.
