BMWs metrosex1ual cars
BMWs on the whole tend to look like they are going to be absolute bollocks and they turn in to half decent cars at the very least. BMW’s pitching the X1 as a crossover rather than a true SUV, an alternative for potential 3 series estate buyers who want to be a few inches higher and aren’t cool enough to appreciate just what a good handling car the estate is. It’s incredibly low for something that is supposed to even pretend to have some off-road ability and there are even plans to make a simple rear wheel drive version along with the mainstream xDrive four wheel drive one. In this series only minor details will be changed by the time the X1 hits the roads next year, the cabin looks like 4,457mm long, 1,789mm wide and 1,535mm tall. Launch engines will include a 170bhp 2.0 petrol and a 177bhp 2.0 litre common rail diesel, but expect six pot motors to join the lineup at some point or other and even a hybrid.
