I think it was in terms of effectiveness ( i.e. brightness and distance)

True, but what made me take the LEDīs was:
-When a facelift will come, it is allways the lights, so cool lights age better
-In the Mercedes S-class the LEDs were better than Xenons, they metioned it had something to do also with the hight of the lights. In the test I posted they said the BMW LED's had an extremely strong area in the foreground, but it faded further away, so my theory and experience with both lights made me thik that as the X lights are higher up than the 3-series tested, they just might work better (my theory, no fact)
I think both are good choices, but I wanted adaptive headlights and the price differnce was not that big, it only made sense if I wouldnt have taken the adapative system, which was nt an option for me.
