Picked up my first BMW today ,the x1.(UK south Wales)
Well pleased after 100 miles on the clock.
Traded in a Mazda cx5 ,was looking for something a tad smaller and the x1 fitted the bill.
Jet black option,already have dodo juice purple haze pro in readiness for the weekend
Looking to have a tow hitch fitted in a couple of months,any one had a Witter fitted?
Decided against factory option as it only came with a seven pin option.

Enjoy polishing your new car. I've had a couple of black/darker coloured cars and eventually got fed up polishing out the smallest swirls, it was fine when I was younger and more mobile but not any more. One of the reasons I went for Alpine White, now I can give it a blast with a foam lance, jet it clean and it still looks good without too much work.

Well it has not stopped raining in S Wales for the last 2 days,no chance to wash and wax.
A few more miles on the clock.
Not really aware of any road noise through the tyres.
Seats seem fine, though are a little small.
Drives like a dream.
I will eventually find how to open the tail gate with the kick action :-)

Yes, the Tailgate Comfort Access is a knack - I find it best just to put toes under the centre of the bumper about an inch or two below - then withdraw. When I "lost" the knack I think it was because I was going to far in - like almost my whole foot. Then by adjusting to "toes just under" it is now almost 100%

Interesting that you find the X1 smaller than Cx5. Or maybe it is the other way around, because most of people think Cx5 is larger, but I can't see it. For me the CX5 is laughably small inside, especially the legroom in the back.
