What to know
No X3-specific DVSA figure was available in the dataset used across this site, so BMW's overall brand average of 79.3% is shown instead. As one of BMW's larger, newer models, it's reasonable to expect the X3 performs at or above that average, consistent with the general pattern that newer, larger models tend to test better than smaller, older ones.
The X3 is a common choice for families needing more space than the X1 without stepping up to the larger X5, and used examples are widely available across a range of engine options.
Check a specific X3's MOT history, tax status, and advisories by registration number.
