Ha ha thanks so much everyone for your help, I think I’ve had the wake up call I needed – I’ll take the car!!! I’d be stupid not to!
Wigwam, I agree totally about the colour, it was a close run thing between Mineral Grey and Storm Bay Grey. It’s the interior that I am most peeved about but as the X1 is one of the best SUV’s on the scheme, I’m going to try to live with it?.
Prior to my current car (Audi Q3 S line 2.0 TDI auto) I had a Mini Countyman 2.0 SD auto and that drove SO NICE. I know that it had a BMW engine so I’m hopeful that the X1 will be as nice to drive. I can’t actually test drive the cars myself as I need adaptations so I always rely on my Uncle to do the test drives with me. He said it drove really well and I found it to be very comfortable as a passenger.
Also, I’ve had and update at 7pm from the BMW dealer, she confirmed that Motability are removing the X1 as of midnight tonight. She thinks this is due to the fact that they are extremely busy with other non Motability orders.
Thank you so much guys, your help has been beneficial for me. I will post some photos when it arrives – mid December hopefully.
Oh and Glos Guy, I agree – I should always listen to my Dad as invariably, he’s always right! ???
