Aside from them being useless off road I don't think anyone is knocking the driving experience are they?

X6M please !

Love them. In fact, I think I would prefer it to my M5. Looks wise for sure.

Massive fan of the X5, never liked the 6, never saw the point of them. Even weirder is that for such a large car the 6 only has 2 back seats!

There's a woman with an X6 in my road.
Parks it in the middle of an end to end 2 car residents parking bay.
One day, I will kill her.
You'll have people queueing up to help. Rude, selfish parking is one of those things that makes me lose my customary bonhomie and develop feelings of uncontrollable rage.

Gone are the days of bespoke, hand built exotic engined racers. Now they are just altered main stream engines with a few upgrades.

The S54 is based on a mainstream engine too, the basic (iron) block is shared with the M50.

These cars are fantastic! I had the cayenne S which is a similar idea and it was brilliant. We could hitch the ski boat we had at the time up to it (near no estate could tow this) fill the boot with stuff for a weekend away and get 5 people in it still and when unhitched at the other end you still had a quick motor to fly around in.

If you think the cars are pointless you don't have the need for 1.

And for all the range rover comments on here I did try a RR supercharged but it was so unreliable land rover swapped it for me when that one went wrong in their defence they gave me a full refund which is when I bought the cayenne.
