BMW X3 SUV M40i Sport Automatic (07/18-) 5d Owner Review

I swapped from a bmw 330d x luxury and was not expecting to enjoy the drive as much, but I was wrong. This was only going to be a car while I selected a full electric, but so far I love it. It drives so smooth and relaxing that passengers often fall asleep. The petrol engine is great but it does need to drop a couple of gears before it takes off, but then it really does take off, the 0-60 is seriously impressive and it corners very well, not at all as wallowing as I’d feared, in fact I corner as fast as in the old 3. 5 people in comfort with a big boot, great handling, 5* The fly in the ointment? 29.2mpg which is better than stated, but it does means 65 ltrs is a hit to the wallet, thankfully I don’t do more than 250 miles a month on average, and get 430ish to a tank.
