Great review and thank you for sharing.
Although I have a 20i petrol I drove a diesel on test drive as petrol versions were not available at all. It certainly seemed very quiet for a diesel (and it only had 6 miles on the clock) had plenty of urge and hardly could feel the gearchanges at all.
I am very pleased with the Petrol version - don't really have a good take on fuel consumption yet (about 850 miles now) as I have only filled up twice and the last one did not get really full as pump was cutting out.
The space and feel of the cabin is really impressive - decision to buy X1 was really made within a few minutes of sitting in stationary vehicle in dealers yard - Jag XE, Audi Q3 and 3 series did not even make it to test drive stage.
