I agonized over the same thing about a month ago. Had a 850D but decided to upgrade because of the clutch enclosure.
Loved the diesel, but from everything I read and heard decided to go with the 825i. Should be here any day. Can't wait.

Depends on what and how youll use it. The gas is going to have a ton more exceleration and higher top speed. But the diesel has more torque and will litterally last forever!! If I was to get another XUV id go with the diesel considering that they finally put a full clutch enclosure on it for 2011 and up just like the rest of them have.
