Looks nice to me, the old one was allready very nice but this is even better specially the 4.8 is. I only don't like the steering wheel on the interior pic.

The changes were good. I only wish that they would modify the rear coz it looks like BMWs 10 years ago. If you dont go off roading it's a good choice. And don't order that air suspension with height adjustment as it makes the suspension loud on bad roads and in fact less comfy when going slowly.

If you really want an SUV and nothing else I think the X5 is the best looking one. I drove one with the 3 litre diesel engine and I was surprised at how civilised it was. Not as much body roll as I expected and the steering was fine as well for a car with these kind of tyres.

why would you need a range rover, your not going off roading.

I suppose it is not a matter of needing, it is all about what is the best car for my girl. She loves big cars. So she and I can go out in the weekend. Take enough luggage with us and our doggie. And maybe in the future, stuff the car with a bunch a kids.

Definitely... the 4.8 with xDrive should be unstoppable... too bad it doesn't have the V10 though...
