What does it cost?
For BMW’s 2.0-litre diesel engine is strong and pretty refined. The BMW X3 xDrive20d SE gives you lots of luxuries, including leather upholstery, dual-zone climate control, parking sensors and cruise control.
Against The wide transmission tunnel makes life uncomfortable for a central rear passenger and the manual gearbox is a bit clunky. We’re yet to try the X3 on standard suspension.
