BMW X3 4 X 4

Boasting excellent on-tarmac dynamics, a practical interior, decent mud-plugging ability and strong performance, BMW's X3 impresses. But it's expensive, some plastics are cheap and the ride is firm.

For: Superb traction in all conditions, boot, excellent handling, image, driving position
Against: Price, miserly equipment, some cheap plastics, fidgety ride
