BMW X Models 2016
Carsguide Contributing journalist Peter Anderson had this to say at the time: The sDrive version of the X1 is a good pick if you don't need or want all-wheel drive or you'd rather save the cash to spend on the many and varied BMW options. With a huge cabin and particularly good space for rear passengers the X1 will carry families at most stages of life with a minimum of fuss. It's easy to drive, has plenty of safety features and should be reasonably economical to run. If you want more economy, get the 18d.

The 2016 BMW X Models carries a braked towing capacity of up to 2700 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.

How to reduce fuel consumption in an X3 20i
Your fuel consumption is way off the claimed consumption figures released by BMW. The company claims the X3 20i should get on average 7.3L/100km, 6.2L/100km on the highway, and 9.2L/100km in city driving. You have to allow for some variation on those numbers due to individual driving conditions, but to be so far out suggests there is something wrong with your car. I wouldn't expect it to reduce enough to get even close to those numbers simply by driving it. Have it checked by your BMW dealer.

X3 Engine failure
You need to get to the bottom of what caused the failure in your engine. It is all very well to assume it was caused by the timing chain wearing and stretching, but until you actually establish that as the cause you won't get anywhere with the carmaker. Have an experienced engineer inspect the damage and if they believe it is caused by the timing chain failure you have something you can take to BMW to argue your case for compensation. You also then have the option of going to consumer affairs to get their help.

Best prestige SUV coupe?
From the research, my pick is definitely the Benz. It's a development of the classy GLC wagon but with improvements including better suspension. The Benz costs a little more but there is stock in showrooms now so you should jump quickly if you want one.

Downsizing from a ML350d?
The GLA is actually my favourite of all the baby Mercedes-Benz models and I reckon it should suit her fine. It gets The Tick from me.
