Need advice on possible 2013-2014 X1 purchase.

Hi everyone, I'm hoping to get some advice from you guys. Basically my wife's '05 X3 - which has been a great vehicle - now has 220K miles on it, and I'm thinking it might be better to replace it with a low mileage X1, since we like those and the X3 is getting up there in the miles. My main concern is reliability - so wondering, how are the early X1's in this regard? I've been looking at relatively low mileage 2013s and 2014s. Anything we need to watch out for, known issues?

All advice appreciated and thanks!

You should post this on the E84 forum which covers 2010-2015 X1's. The F48 is a new gen that's built on a different platform and a different engine. You'll get more input over there. Good luck in your search.
