So for the past few months I've driving a new X3 M-Sport X-Drive. Personal circumstance have changed a lot and I needed something that could accommodate all my needs and take care of my mother, the wife's mother regarding appointments etc (both disabled).
Anyway I tried a few things and even had a deal on a Q5 but BMW blew them away on part ex and monthlies. The car I got was a a new 2019 X3 2.0 M-Sport that they had on stock and right time right place I pulled the pin. I was surprised to find out the car only had 2 x options that were Glacier Silver paint and privacy glass. It has full park assistant, 10" satnav, cruise, 8 speed auto, heated sport seats with adjustable lumbar support, digital dash, 20gb music jukebox, powered boot, ambient lighting, BMW connected (unlock/lock doors), aux heating and more stuff I'm getting to find out/know.
So it drives quite well, good steering feedback, good traction but no S3 in regards power and handling. But, I have jelled with it quite well and the "boss" loves it.
Didn't think I'd ever want and SUV but as stated earlier my circumstances changed that it was a needs must.
All in all I miss the S3 for the fun factor but I don't regret my decision as it is good to drive in its own way.
I'll get some pics up and I will continue to peruse this site, it's a good crack.
Ps, now I can go on trips with @MattSedg Now where's my tent
