We have had an X1 for 4 years now.. its a 1.8 s drive (148BHP) spec is a bit dated now, drives very well and is economical on longish journeys. for your type of running petrol would be better. We can get over 50 on long trips but since Covid our journeys are in the 20 to 50 mile range and we are down to low to mid 40s. Seats are hardish but not too uncomfortable for me. Suspension is quite hard and there is a lot of tire noise. Silly seat belt top mount which means that small drivers/ passengers are strangled by the belt. We were thinking of replacing with a new one before Brexit but in the end went for a Q3.
