Excellent, very attractive car. Drives superbly. I previously had the XC40 — that was fine, but the BMW suits me better in pretty much every respect.

Beautiful design, carefully finished inside, large display, very comfortable ride with the automatic gearbox, a bit cramped in the back, fairly spacious boot.
