THx, please also post the 250 data (for a friend of mine who is considering either one).

BTW, is the new Dealer Order Guide of the GLA already available? Would be useful too!

@Sincity Yep, will sell the X1 3+ years, time for a new vehicle.
@HAWKiS63 ... I think he sent me the dealer guide, most dealers should have it but the build-your-own won't reflect these changes until ~April

Thx, on the online configurator already the new (facelift) model can be configured (at least over here in EU). There is no PDF of the new (US) dealer guide available? Here they will be available in March probably.
