I was actually curious as to what you all use for paint protection and such. I had previously heard that the X1 has notably thin clear coat and the paint is prone to scratches. Despite appearances I'm actually a bit excessive when it comes to keeping a clean car. Prior to my trip I applied a paint sealant, I use H20 Guard and Gloss by Adam's Polishes, and it worked absolute wonders for me. All the water ran right off the car, and the dirt came off as soon as I began to wash it. For interior stuff I use an interior detailer spray with microban for probably 90% of the car. In the trunk I had laid down my seats and placed a large piece of plastic sheeting covering the whole area. I slept and lived out of the car yet within an hour and a half after my trip I had it back to shining bright. This was my first black vehicle, man they look great when clean but I think I would go with either white or blue next. The pics posted here of those colors are absolutely beautiful, even without Pikes Peak or the Air Force Academy in the background
Beautiful scenery and car looks great also. I use ceramic coat (applied by finisher) and then lots of wax on top. You are right, the paint is thin but I suppose it reflects modern water based paints and manufacturing processes (BMW would only apply minimum necessary).

Some really lovely cars on here

Just finalised on my CPO 2017 X1 and waiting for it’s prep and travel down from Scotland, these photos making me quite impatient to see mine in the flesh. I will try and post some photos once collect - it’s a sunset orange which rarely seem to see sadly.

Almost due to replace tires. Just wondering if I should go aftermarket wheels and lower the car.
Any photos of lowered and or with aftermarket wheels?

Are those genuine BMW wheels? I can't seem to find the X1 PCD bolt pattern of 5x112.

I normally don't post pictures of my vehicles but since I haven't seen another x1 with off road tires, here is mine.

Wife's New Ride

We just traded wife's Mercedes for this X1 at our local BMW dealer for a great price. The only option/package it doesn't have is the Driver Assistance Plus. So far we're loving it

Nice taillight tints, pfdaxe. The cutouts for the reverse lights/silver trim is a sweet custom touch. Been wanting to wrap my non-LED taillights for awhile now. Motivated to tackle it sooner than later.

Owned Subaru's previously. First BMW. Thought I deserved to get my feet wet in the luxury car game.

There are some awesome X1's here. I'm excited to start making mine my own.

Looks nice! Personally I'd remove the m badge from the grill and rear.
