After selling a Tanzanite blue 435D GC replacing it with a X4 35D I realised how much of a mistake I had made. Sold the X4 after 5 months of ownership and this morning, took delivery of a rather nice late 2017 435D in mineral grey

No photos yet but here's the sellers youtube video

What specifically did you like less about the X4 bc honestly I would think it would be sporty and similar drive dynamics. Not the case?

Spring wash, guaranteed dirty again immediately but still a win

It was significantly more expensive on fuel, i was averaging 10mpg less than the 435D, add to that the larger tank was a little heavy on the pocket.

The main points:
"Boaty" feeling
Boot space wasn't any better than the F36
Wheel arch gap - i just couldn't ignore it.

Great car but din't meet my needs in the end.

Owned for six months and driven only 3k miles it's difficult to justify owning a 435D, however man is it fun to drive.
