BMW X1 2014
Carsguide Contributing journalist Peter Anderson had this to say at the time: The X1 is a bit of a sleeper hit in the BMW's range and it's not hard to see why. It does a lot of things that other, more expensive Japanese and German competitors do, but with more distinctive looks and with better dynamics, better even than the CX-5.

BMW X1 2011: Seats cracking
I presume the seats are leather. Leather needs regular maintenance with cleaner and conditioner to keep it supple and prevent it from drying out and cracking. You can buy leather conditioner at all major auto outlets.

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.

Power chip for 2010 BMW X1
We haven't had any experience with the chip you refer to, but have had some with other chips that have been offered here in the past. Yes they can work, but they do so by taking the engine calibration closer to the edge than the carmaker would dare do with safety. In my view they would clearly affect the warranty.

No spare wheel in BMW X1
It doesn't have a spare so I guess their thinking us that you don't need a jack or a wheel brace. Without a spare you have to take your X1 to a dealer or tyre outlet when you have a problem with a run-flat and they have the equipment to remove the wheels. It's also an indication of how many BMW owners take their vehicles offroad.
