X5 2019 vs X3 2019 - Help please

[DiamondLights]

So far am very pleased with the X3 M40i.

She's got the space of an SUV, so well equipped in the boot space and everyone can sit comfortably. Few minor annoyances (cargo nets on back of front seats!) but nothing that will frustrate me much (plus i'll be sat in the front anyway right!).

But the car is absolutely rapid, really shifts, an SUV size albeit not as big as X5 or GLE, but the engine makes it a much more enjoyable drive. I think i was onto a winner with either to be honest, an X5 or X3, but dropping down to the X3 with the M40i engine and saving around £9k for me was a worthwhile saving.

The X3 is very much a right sized SUV, not too small not too big.
