I thought you said you didn't like th Q7, Martin??? I must admit although the spec sounds fantastic and doubtless build quality will be second to none, the Q7 is generally ugly. The bigger wheels will help the visual balance I expect, but even so.... oh dear. Choosing a new car is almost as stressful as moving house

It's not as ugly as a Cayenne...or that Skoda Roomster. But it is ugly.

I'd have to be with VA on the Q7.

I really want to like them but I just can't bring myself to do so.

If I were to change from the Sport I think I'd going in the direction that Shmoogle did but the touring version. Drove a 535 MSport Touring the other & what a car

Tough decison though if you want to stay in the SUV range though, very hard to beat the RRS

I would not say it is ugly, it is never going to be the most beautifull car on the roads but then neither is the RRS
The Q7 does have massive prescence though, which I think when it comes to 4x4's is one of the biggest winning ingredients.

Yes it does and as you can see in this picture it also needs a massive car parking space to park the ugly duckling in any average town centre.
Do you really need to haul the extra weight of the folding seats around in the boot that will prob never get used?

I see a fleet of these being driven every day. From the front looks ok but then I see how big it is......sorry no thanks. TDV6 - gone
TDV8 - gone
