We are still debating on a pre-reg 2.0i that we found, so if that falls through, then you never know!

Have you looked at CarWow ? I got a factory order to my preferred spec and saved £5,000 !

Hey, Yes I did and they were good savings, however you can pickup a pre-reg for a few grand less.

Thanks for the suggestion.

In mixed driving, I'm averaging 10.5L/100km (I believe that's 27mpg UK). I also drive mostly in sport mode, so I'm sure I could average something a little closer to 10, but I think I'd be hard pressed to get under 10.

On some weeks, we use the car strictly in "city driving", and during those weeks, I'd say we average around 12L/100km (23.5mpg).

Only regret I have with the 2.0 petrol is that it feels slow as our other car is a 335 lol.

I don't know what they will do with the car I have at the moment. BMW built a 2019 car when in fact it should have been 2020. It does happen very occasionally they tell me: confused2 They may be worth a call whichever you decide, put out us up overnight which was nice of them.

I'm shocked about these consumptions of the car. We currently own the M40i and while we did expect it to be quite bad, it's weird that you guys with the smaller engines are going through the same trouble. We are currently doing 11.3 l/100 km (20,8 mpg) and we do sometimes floor it a bit too. I wonder if it's our driving style that does this, or if the new X3 in general that's being weird.

Being a fairly heavy car that's not aerodynamic the smaller engine will be working quite hard. The M40i won't be working hard so economy isn't that different. If you could work the M40i hard most of the time then economy would really suffer.
