Having gone from BMW to RR Sport I would not go back, it looks and feels special goes like a train and oozes class. Get a decent V8 with a warranty and you won't regret it (BMW is boring and run of the mill) you simply would not go hunting in an X5. Wait till the the end of August as dealers will have p/x to off load traded for new reg. |

A wild card, but have you looked at the Discovery D4? |

I have a TDV8 average mpg of 25 on mixed driving. Only get to average of 20 if use the loud pedal I had a Touareg bought new very very competent car especially off road but very boring interior bit like the BMW Had a Q5 as a company car - again very boring opted out of CC scheme & got the RRS I've had two sports & a FFRR would never go back to bmw as they have no soul. The Range Rover brand has its issues, they have not had the best build quality but they IMHO are still the best 4x4xfar Paul L405 Loire Blue Swift Conqueror 645 Abarth 500c |

I agree with most of what people have said. I have had 2 RRS and (and a Benz sedan until recently) I just bought a new X5D.

I had a 3.0 TDV6 HSE, then a 2010 TDV8 HSE before switching to a 2011 X5 3.0D and I would say the TDV8 is by far the best car. Although the X5 may have better on road handling I much prefer the air suspension side of the RRS.

Just a quick point you cant compare some of the BMW (= rubbish BTW) 2012 features to the 2010 sport either 2012 - 2012 or 2010 - 2010 Mike

On the other hand - the FFRR isnt as nice inside (not from a quality point of view), will date massively when the new version comes out, is an old revised design with some cool features but still old made new.
