Car financing: the 2018 BMW X6
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2018 BMW X6 for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Before you buy the 2018 BMW X6, see the figures and the checks worth doing.
What to check on the X6
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Owners filed 4 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, service brakes and steering; have those parts checked.
What the specs mean
Under the hood: the 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo and rear-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
Rated at 11.3 L/100 km combined, it needs around 34 litres for a 300 km round trip. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $197.80. The EPA estimates US$3,900 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Who rents the X6
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Inside and out
The higher seat of a full-size SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.
A longer test drive
Rent the X6 first, and buy only if it fits your life. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. A week with the X6 answers more than any brochure.
Narrowing it down
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
The cost of driving it
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $19.78 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$3,900 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $197.80 at our price setting.
