an X5 (boo hiss) - one kid, another on the way and it is much more comfy for the heavily pregnant missus. The boot is bigger and easier to get prams, high chairs etc in and the missus loves it. It also feels like its made out of granite. Miss the S4 but I dont miss the "what was that noise?/Was that blue smoke?" feeling I kept getting. And the insurance premium had gone up (for no apparent reason) by £150!

Aye, if I had £40k and an endless pot of cash to insure it, service it and felt happy driving round London in the fastest get away car there is, then yes, would have loved to. The X5 was only £25k!

The X5 IS made out of granite. That's why it's so slow!

For 25K you may have got yourself a sensible Estate Car...RS4. Did I say sensible? Well it looks sensible.

Arf arf.

The X5 aint no S4 thats for sure. Plan to get something "sporty" just for me once my finances allow. Maybe an older Elise or similar.
