I drive an X1 23d with sports suspension and larger wheels. When I was ordering it I really wanted an M Sport version, but at the time it was not available . I've owned the car since April and am thinking of either having the new X1 M panels retro fitted when they become available or going the AC Scnitzer route inc a power upgrade. However the Y version of the X1 or perhaps the X4 sound very interesting

I've looked at the X1 from every angle and it's looks grow on you over time, but I think (IMO) that round wheel arches and three doors with the front doors being slightly longer, plus an aero body kit would make it a truly stunning vehical to look at. If you changed the bonnet and tailgate to aluminium it would reduce weight and along with the other changes should reduce cost. The look would be similar to a 'pumped up' VW G40 or modern version of the Scimitar
