As my car is in for a service I took the opportunity to test drive the new X1 xDrive2.0d automatic.

We had a lovely winterday with temperatures around zero F and some powder snow coming down.
The roads where very, very icy.

The car was brand new, it had 7 miles on the taco
and brand new 17" Nokian Hakkapeliitta 7 winter spike tires.

As you can see from the pics it was white, with black leather and some extras.
It look actually much better live than in the pics (cellcam).

Well, it will not be my next car. A four wheel drive is excellent on these icy roads,
and it was really fun to drive, but it's not even close as comfortable as a E60.

Not even a M5 would have been faster from 0 - 60 today.

Yeah, I dunno, I don't like the front at all.

Looks like a droopy face.
