x3 2.0d 2004

Hello! Need some inf. Want to buy my first car, it will be for work and for my needs. The most excepcted thing i need is non-breakable car. I will have to upload the car for work regulary with around 200-300kg, and everyday taking about 100-150km. Is this my car? I dont want to know about private life of my automechanic.... My options is x3 2.0d, 525d (but is realy small)
If you say the engine/car suck i will have to choice skoda, merc or some ugly toyota I have aroud 15-16k euro for the x3. Helpppp

I want less breakable car. Just asked, how is the engine, suspension, transmision (manual), etc. Weak parts? For example i drive now my dad`s peugeot 307 sw 2.0 HDI 2003 for 2 years, changed 1 trafficator, some devices for airbags, 2 disk brakes and this is. Its pretty fine, i drive evereday at least 100km.

bmw is more durable than peugeot , brakes last more km , all cars wear out , some cars wear out quicker, you may wish to consider ford mondeo estate if you are in europe as is reasonably reliable and economical to run.if you want four wheel drive then look at jaguar x type estate as it uses mondeo engine and chassis.

skoda 4wd , audi 4wd very durable,x3 ok,but with the kg you carry be careful of cars load capacity, thats why i mention ford or jaguar-have you driven them-you will be impressed.
