Well after driving Q5, Q3, Evoque I kept coming back to the X4.
My main reason for my first BMW was:
1 Q5 new shape is out next year no point buying an old version, had one before and while its a fine car it feels a bit dated.
2. Q3 too small
3. Evoque. Great looking, but so hit and miss on reliability, and the new engine is out soon.
I purchase a 2015/64 2.0 M sport auto, it has a few extras, profession nav, assist beam, reverse camera.... The X4 is great place to sit, the steering is sharp and the fuel economy is a welcome improvement over my Touareg.
I was looking for a car like drive with 4x4 stability with out the boxy 4x4 look, the X4 is just what I am after, I pick it up next week.

Congratulations ! test drove an X4 last year 3.0d it was brilliant , mother in law has the Q5 very dark inside plus costs a fortune in servicing . Have you got the 5 year service pack well worth the money at under £500 ?

Congrats!
Sophisto Xirallic is an incredible colour. You can see something different in it almost every day as it reacts in unexpected ways to the available light.
Enjoy your new X4.

Most folks use something like Photobucket. Easy to upload your photos from either PC or smart device, and then you simply paste the image link into your post here.

Sophisto Grey Xirallic Metallic is a gorgeous colour! It almost seems to be like a chrome black in a way!
