RE: BMW X7 M50d: Driven

[Superflow]

Haha ,Nick are you a lawyer?

Enjoy the X7.

[nickfrog]

Not quite, but thanks for the compliment

I doubt I would enjoy the X7, not a big fan.

Still don't get why BMW have started trying to make their cars look like Rob Beckett...

[gumball3K]

It looks hideous and do you need an X7? Definitely going to sell like hot cakes. Not. Time they built cars like the csl ...

I saw a late model BMW M760 xdrive today, in a bright shade of blue. What a fabulous thing it was.

That’s a thing of beauty . BMW will still happily sell you a big, fast, comfy 2 door GT. People just seem to prefer SUV’s.

Love BM's - hate this

[seveb]

On a par with the Bentaga - really ugly. But as we know, money loves ugly so it will sell. Probably with even uglier interiors.

I’m in the market for a new car this looks fantastic

To be fair a Tesla Model X is wider, and lots of the full size SUVs are around the 1990mm mark.



The X7, like all of these sorts of things, are bloody appalling cars for terrible people.

Not sitting on the fence then?

That’s a very poignant piece of art. It’s a very clever visual representation of the evolution of the modern consumer society over a 30 year consumer debt binging boom. It certainly highlights the inverse relationship between elegance & style and the number of Vanquiis cards.

You could title the piece ‘The Death of Civilisation’. Or maybe ‘The Birth of Idiocracy’.

I'd love an X7 pity they are selling like hot cakes so the discounts are low.

[coppice]

I am genuinely curious - why on earth would anybody, especially in the UK , want to buy an absurd car like this ? It is gigantic , a pig to park , too wide for many roads to be driven without squeaky bum moments and almost everyone thinks you are a dick.So what does it have to compensate for this - yadda yadda massive torque etc ..but really , deep down ? Do people with big families of supersize people buy them ? The only cars like this I see , here Up North , are driven by tiny women with fake tans and stunt chests...

[Burwood]

I wouldn’t buy one for that very reason. Roads around me too narrow but otherwise, why not. It’s no bigger than a Range Rover.

They’ll sell

It is if real. Looks a bit exaggerated. Stand next to an X5. It’s a big buggar. A while back I was irritated by a Lexus LS encroaching way into my parking bay. Thinking ‘bad parking’. Nope it was as long as a bus.
