    I liked the X5 and thought I'd have a look at the new X3 2.0d SE as its fairly economical on paper. After spending some time with the X3 and driving it I came to the conclusion that its a rather bland and boring car. Its far to low to be a serious 4x4 and no where near an Audi estate or even a 5 series. Inside you do get good equipment though: Many airbags - Driver and front passenger airbags with IDA? (impact-depending airbag system), front seat occupancy detector, Head airbag front and rear, Side airbags at the front for driver and front passenger. If you had a serious accident and all the ... more

    4 Stars Quick review of BMW X3 2.0d SE by ellceedee 06/10/2008
    A very underrated Sports Activity Vehicle. Mine is the xDrive 20d 2008 model with the 177hp engine. Smooth, powerful (for size) and economic after the petrol 5 series I have been driving. Disregard the old road tests (2004/2005) especially that of Top Gear, the latest model is not the same car. Finish is excellent and easily compares with my previous 5 series Touring. Early days but highly recommended so far.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Diesel engine is a little coarse

    By the way, I don't mean to come across as negative when I talk about this car, (and yes it is only a car, not a 4X4) but when I come to think about it, the BMW X3 diesel hasn't alot going for it. The interior for a start is cheap. The quality of the plastics and the trim do not suggest to me that I have just spent €60,000 (bought in Ireland) on a car. The cabin is tiny, the leg room reminded me of a Ryanair/Easyjet flight, the boot (for what it is meant to be) is tiny. On the upside, the seats are very supportive, especially on long journeys, the stereo is superb and the overall handling on ... more
