Can you get a nice 2010 RRS TDV8 for 33k with LR warranty and reasonable mileage? If so, then that would be pretty interesting. The diesel V8 is a superb engine, and of course the off road capabilities are far far better than an X5.

33k for a 10 plate, may be pushing it for a TDV8 but you may find a high mileage 3.0 TDV6, and then maybe an SE which doesn't have a couple of the toys that make it even more special to have a RRS. |

Tried X5 when I bought RRS - seat and suspension too firm for me - felt like being whacked up arse with a cricket bat over every bump |

If you get intouch with one of these 3 musketeers http://www.rrsport.co.uk/forum/topic25314.html i'm sure they will be more than happy to sell you a RRS |

The BMW handles better and arguably may have the better mechanicals.

I was at a LR event at Eastnor Castle back in 1999 where a few select people who drove Mercs, BMWs, Jags and Lexus etc had been invited, and while they were getting there pre drive speech the spokeman said "we can go anywhere in as much luxury and at the legal speeds as you, but you can't go everywhere we go!)

If you just want a 4x4 because you want the benefits of raised driving position etc. then the X5 would be fine. It would probably be more reliable and cheaper to run too. They're not known for being any good off tarmac though.
