Great Value

After much research I decided to purchase the BMW X1. I test drove similar crossovers from other luxury brands (Audi, Lincoln, Mercedes, etc.) and the X1 is the best value. It makes great use of space for a smaller SUV. There is plenty of passenger seat room and well as cargo. The vehicle drives smooth and steady. I purchased this as a CPO vehicle and it is in like new condition. The sunroof is a must.

Wish that I could see

I cannot see backing up. At night it’s totally black and can’t even use side mirrors. I can see 30 feet away but nothing in between. Very dangerous. I think being an to see to drive your car should be a given. Not an add on

Just bought with 22,000 miles & feels brand new

The X1 may appear small and compact but is quite spacious inside. Car excels smoothly and effortlessly. Car has great styling and engineering, BMW knows how to add perks to a vehicle! Great gas mileage for an AWD vehicle. This model is worth checking out.

WORST CAR I'VE EVER OWNED

AWFUL experience; I bought a CPO X1 that was in the shop 3x and BROKE DOWN in the first 10 weeks after purchase. Not only was the vehicle way overpriced (I was in a hurry to buy and made a very poor decision) but I cannot see how it was CPO given the problems I had with it. Now I am stuck with an overpriced vehicle from a substandard dealer that charges fees they did not earn. I will never buy a BMW again.

First German luxury car

Bought used, 36,000 miles, but like new. Unbelievable! From a used Benz/Beemer dealer in Scottsdale, AZ. Absolutely recommend. Drives nice and interior feels elegant. One minor critique: The front seats could be a little longer on the bottoms...but not a big deal. Lots of engineering in vehicle. Yes, it does live up to "ultimate driving machine"

Great used car

The value and technology far exceeded what I was expecting. Great gas mileage and user friendly. The handling is perfect. Comfortable for short or long trips.
