I loved the 7 inches reference. Smooth.

this guy is the mkbhd for cars

Matt at a brothel: There's soft touch plastics everywhere

Liked the way it was reviewed.... keeping the audience entertained with humour and parting information at the same time very efficiently.

Who agrees the X1 is the best car in its class?

God i love the way you review cars... this is the only car review channel i'm subbed to. No useless info , you manage to cover most important things on a car yet the reviews are never boring, they have a nice dynamic and speed. Keep up the good work!

If you look closely you’ll see that the check engine light is on lol 😂

6:01 the moment when a brand new car already has the Check Engine light on. BMW.

I purchased the 2018 X1 in 2017 and absolutely LOVE it! Being 5' tall it is a perfect fit. My husband is 6'3 and has plenty of room as well. The x1 is sporty,fast and nimble! Getting lots of "nice car" comments gives one a sense of pride. BMW FOREVER!

When will u make a review on BMW x1 2020 I hear that this car have an amazing features and great updates

Mat please do a review on new BMW X1 2019.

I own a X5 x40 EDrive 2017 and when comparing my X5 and this X1 simply the X1 is impressive in terms of everything

did no one understand that 7 inches look he gave hahahaha

is there any color of the Tommy hilfigher sweatshirt that you don't have yet?

X1 has been my Crush since first sight 3>

Easter egg(??).Bell X1 plane at 3:01 on the smartphone screen...

Good visibility, so it should be easy to tailgate people.

The parcel shelf is very handy. Saab had it in the last 9.5 and I loved it. You can put things on it without pushing down to the luggage space below it.

Matt please review the volvo XC60 we all wanna see how it stands with the germans and british

Hi Mat, I hope to see the new X1 2020 reviewing from your channel soon.

Matt's reviews are simply the best in term of analysis and humour which has it's importance Keep doing great work !!

Please review BMX X1 SUV 2019! Thanks!

I do love how Matt reviews cars. It's so witty, light-hearted, pleasant to watch. I literally think the guy is a lad I'd like to have a beer or two with.

Finally got me an x1!!! Im buzzing!! 🤩

That price is not okay though!

I drove an x2 for about 3 days when my x3 was gertting its battery replaced and it was really fun to drive. It does 0-100 so quick and you won't even notice! Its too small for me though, I enjoy my x3.

2022 - gettings this now ;)

Matt isn't only car reveiwer but also a good entertainer

Superb review... This is what the consumers need. The car showcasing is detailed and features clearly mentioned. Good work 👍

Its the only one I've seen where he says "go ahead and buy it"

this review is the reason why I got the X1 instead of the GLA, thank you my friend for the review

Does it feel like you're sitting in the car or on it? I think that's always important to mention in an Suv review.

He knocked the BMW 2.0 Diesel engine! it is one of the best engines ever built lol

Nice subtle Easter egg there with the X-1 plane ;P

anyone remember when iDrive infotainment debuted in the 7 series in 2002 how all the journalist said it was horrible to use ?

Am reviewing this late 2020, near four years after this video was produced. Despite new rivals on the scene, methinks the X1 still holds its ground. BTW, I realize I miss the ol' Car Wow music in these videos, esp. the cue that announces Matt's conclusion.

5:08 thanks for the information! ;)

kindly make a review for a BMW X1 vs Audi Q3 and Mercedes GLA thanks

Is it a rebodied Mini Countryman?

By far the best X1 review around. Thank you Mat!

Thanks Matt for your in depth reviews

How long will it take before that rear seat folding button breaks?

Theres always talk about carrying skis but how many people go skiing

6:34 you can clearly see the sign warning not to put childs on the front seat LOL

Would this be a good first car for me?

Just got the 2018 20i sdrive with 120k km. Have to say, it aged great!

I custom ordered one of these with the sports package and all the bells and whistles that I could get. I have to pick it up two hours away. I'll post up on here if it was worth it or not within a week's time of driving time.

If you in a market for small cross-over and you are looking good quality, X1 is an option but choose one with Aisin gearbox. Personally I'd choose Lexus NX any given day.

I own the 2016 BMW X1 and I love it.

Can you please review the Abarth 124 Spider?

I just love Matt’s review

I'm into the x5 but I'd definitely settle for this as a budget friendly

Curious question, the feature that allows you to fold the middle rear seat down (via pulling the strap from the back-seat as found in 1:09) ... does this come in the standard models or is this feature only available with the "reclining rear seat" extra add on? I don't care much for the sliding or reclining, but the middle seat being able to fold down is a game changer, especially for snowboarding, skiing and even fishing!

I miss my BMW x1 Msport 2016 plate but did a mistake and decided to go and sell it. So i could go and get the JCW (John Cooper Works) Mini Clubman 2016. Only had the BMW for about 5months loved everything about my BMW X1 but only down thing i hated, was that when i drove it in snow it felt like it didn't grip the road properly and it started sliding but my JCW Mini Clubman in snow has way more grip and feels more sturdier in snow.

The only thing missing in the review is the seats: I'm 176cm and 65kilos (so not big by any standards) and the seats are narrow and hard for me. Got a Passat as business car (I know, its completely different but the price tag is pretty much the same) and the seats in the BMW just hurt and don't compare on any level (i've got the xline with half leather sports seats or whatever it is, probably makes it even worse). Other then that, its a really, really good car and even the 18d (140hp) feels fast and really agile, handling is good and even a bit of fun. Engine much much quieter then diesel VWs. Tire roar a bit of an issue but you can get used to it. The interior looks small but you can fit loads of stuff inside. The onboard entertainment isn't cutting edge Volvo-type all-glass technology but its really easy to operate and does the job without being too obtrusive. Prefer that over the Volvo, honestly. Price isn't great: had Discovery Sport, Q3 and Tiguan on shortlist and this is small and expensive but the dealers just automatically reduce the tag price but aprox 10% which made it more acceptable (still more expensive then most competitors). A big benefit for me was no waiting time: in Central Europe there are loads of new ready-made cars across the specs range so you just choose the colour (blue is best for BMW).

Hi I just want to know the color of the X1 in this video. Is it Atlantic Grey Metallic? Looks like it but I'm not sure.

That color is so pretty!!! Love the mocha interior too

Which one is the best MG HS or BMW X1 overall performance ?

Can you do Mercedes gla vs Audi q3 vs BMW x1

I love your videos Mat ! and of course the camera guys and stuff ! :)

Are the X1 better option than say a kuga, CX5, ateca, tiguan, 3008,Q3, karoq??? Anyone any advice as I'm getting a SUV in the next 3-4. months and would appreciate further advice please

MATT I WANT VLOGS THOSE ARE THE BEST

Mat, I cannot believe you keep on saying the idrive system is the best on the market... it was, but maybe 10 years ago! any new touch screen like ones in new golf is infinitly better. I suggest a simple test: get 2 people to start the car and set navigation system to a desired destination. I can already tell you what the results would be: as the touch screen user cruises along on the highway, the bmw person still turns that idrive wheel. It is so indirect! I love bmws but idrive is a relict from the past!!!!

Best reviewer on KZfaq!

I booked BMW x1 after watching your reviews :D

In the external driving shots, the driver is sitting too low lol

First i wanted to rant about the missing rear wheel drive but then i remembered that most buyers are soccer mums and retirees. But with the upcoming 1 Series they really hit me in the face. I hate front wheel drive.

Finally i realised it! The toucan bird comparision with the previous x1 version is perfect.

I bought BMW X1 in 2018 . I noticed discolouration of break disc 14 months after and at 6300 miles . BMW UK and dealer will not pay to correct it because it is more than a year old and has done 6000+ miles

Gave it a like from the get go just for the bird comparison at the beginning of the video lol

agree this car is good

The BMW X1 is a great car however the only problem is that it's not the most reliable car. I've had mine for over a year and in that time I've had problems with rattles, the tailgate opening on it's own and a fault with the engine management system that kept the car off the road for over a week. The customer care from the local BMW dealership is not very good either.

Thank GOD ... this time you said..."buy it"..... which means you surely are a FAIR JOURNALIST .... 👌🏻

This car is amazing, but two cons are completely crossing it: 1. 4-cylinders engines only 2. FWD It's not a BMW anymore.

Kind of want that car now.....

following on from this review i went ahead and bought one via Carwow. fantastic service and excellent price! thanks Matt and Carwow

5:54 should've put a plastic deer on the road and then be like "oh dear(deer)"

Nice way of presentation. In short time lots of information and details. I like it.

Hmm, tyre noise it's a problem. You just brushed over that rather quickly. Some of these reviews don't seem really impartial. Engine light on already on it? What is like for reliability then...

knows 7 inches by heart!

Still trying to decide between a tiguan, xc60 volvo, seat ateca and now this has my head wrecked even more saw one at the golf club Fri morning looked class

Today is my birthday! Can you Mat reply or atleast give me a GTR?

Hey Mat... big fan of yours....

Love this channel, my first go to for car reviews!

Best review of the X1

Do you any idea of sunroof rattle or can you suggest a fix for it?

It not only sounds like a van, it is a van, look at the steering wheel angle at 6:37. And it is front wheel drive + hang on awd.

Finally my car! Love you matt!!!😘

10 fold above modern carbuyer reviews. Spot on Matt!

i wish i buyed the adaptive dampers but can you still put it after you bought the car?

i have this car you mentioned all positive which i agree but there is one flaw which to me compromising safety the line change which just vibrate the steering but not activated till you go over 40 miles so if you felt in sleep and you crossed the line let say 38 miles does not activates in particular most of cities the speed limit 35 so you have to speed 40 and over it also does not have blind spot sensor

Purchased couple of days ago and returned it . It’s very uncomfortable, the steering wheel is so hard . The car is chunky and drinks fuel unbelievably . If the car is not manufactured after November 2018 it does not support apple car play Def do not recommend. You have to drive a car for 2 days to be able to make a review on it .

I've heard from some reviewers that the seats are really firm and uncomfortable with the fake leather.

Hi, so you claimed huge gear selector. The reason is that X1 is using an Aisin gearbox instead of ZF Electronics. No doubt this car has something like BMW DNA and almost perfect chassis. On the other hand they should work on a overall quality of materials in the interior to beat it's competitors (mainly Lexus and Audi). Speaking of Audi I can't stand their new firm display.

What about the adaptiv templomat (or cruise control)? I can't find any info how this camera based system is functioning

Mat please make more videos cars with panoramique surnoof and get it opened please

Great informative video, and Mat you are the best...so much fun to watch. I get delivery of my 2017 X1 today!!!

please tell me which is the best Audi Q2 or BMW X1?

infinito qx30 please
