Vehicle Detail

SkillanNaylor Car Company are pleased to offer this 2020 BMW X3 xDrive M40i 5Dr Auto seen in Phytonic Blue Metallic with Black Vernasca Leather featuring Blue highlight stitching.

The BMW X3 has been in production now for 20 years. It was first launched back in 2003 and designed to sit below the BMW X5 in both size and cost. The X3 has always been a good car to drive however with the generation one car, code named E83 you could tell that it had been built to a price so as not to compete with the X5. The choice of some interior plastics wasn't great and it was never given all of the features & options that were available on the X5. The gen one car (E83) was available with a choice of both petrol and diesel engines with either a 2.0L 4-Cylinder or 3.0L 6-Cylinder capacity. There were the usual trim levels of SE, Sport and in later cars M-Sport.

In 2010 BMW launched the second generation X3 coded named F25. This brought through many improves to the model. The overall quality was much better and the visual aesthetics were much cleaner thanks to more colour coding of the bodywork. In the UK the F25 variant of the X3 was available with diesel power only in either 2.0L 4-Cylinder Turbo diesel form know as a 20d or with a 3.0L 6-Cylinder diesel engine. The 3.0L engine could be had with either one turbo, 30d or with two turbos, 35d. The 35d range topping model was a great car. It developed 313 BHP and 630Nm Torque. The trim levels in the F25 X3 were similar to the original car. You could have SE, X-Line and M-Sport.

in 2017 BMW debuted the all-New G01 variant of the X3. With this car the X3 was let of the leash. It no longer had to try and sit below its bigger brother the X5. There were no compromises made in the construction or specification of the new X3. The cabin was made of the best materials which included lots of soft-touch plastics and luxurious leather. The engine range now included petrol models again and for the first time their was a BMW M model.

This BMW X3 is an M40i. This means it is classed as an M Performance model or M lite. It features a 3.0L 6-Cylinder Turbo petrol engine that develops 382 HP. Until the X3M was launched a couple of years later this was the most powerful X3 ever built. Like all X3's the engine is connected to BMW's xDrive 4-Wheel Drive system and through an 8-Speed sports auto gearbox.

The M40i model of X3 comes with a very high level of factory equipment. This includes Adaptive M-Suspension, larger brakes with Blue Callipers and a Multi-Media touchscreen infotainment system that features Professional Sat-Nav and Apple Car Play.

As with any German car you can also raid the factory options list and add a host of other options. On this car the first owner picked just about everything available. The options include Head-Up Display which projects information such as the Sat-Nav and vehicle speed directly on to the Windscreen. This car also has a Harman Kardon Stereo and a Gesture Opening & Closing Power Tailgate. This means you can open or close the tailgate by waving your foot under the rear bumper. This an invaluable feature when trying to load the boot with your hands full.

Car manufactures can sometimes be associated with certain colours e.g. Red Ferrari's and Silver Mercedes. For BMW their signature colour has to be blue. This car is finished in a stunning shade of blue called Phytonic Blue Metallic. This is complimented by a full black leather interior which features blue highlight stitching.
