Hello! New member here from the Philippines.

Looking at buying a U11 X1 locally but the only trim they offer is the sDrive18d with the xLine package, and they don’t have any optional extras. The reason for this is they don’t want to reach the price point of the Malaysian assembled X3 xDrive20d.

Would like to know your thoughts on this, and your experiences with the diesel engined X1.

Read my review below, the spec is different but the engine and car overall is fantastic

is it wrong that I somethings drive my X1(petrol-only) and think "I wish there's a nice proper German BMW diesel engine under the bonnet..."

or like the other day when I was kind of staring with diesel envy when the lady at the gas pump next to me was pumping diesel into her very nice BMW 330d? (she thought I was checking her out, but I was actually looking at the diesel nozzle)

It would have been amusing to have said “i’m sorry maam, i’m not checking you out just your oil burner”
