X3 sucks the balls. And if you think it has off-road capabilities, you're wrong. Clarkson already proved the X3 will get stuck in wet grass. :fist: It's also not comfortable on the road and that plastic body kit looks like shit. :fist: You can find a way better car for that kind of money...like a 5 series. 8)

If you wanted a small luxury SUV with decent off road manners did you consider the land rover freelander. it looks decent and its a land rover so you know it has off road capabilities.
or a little cheaper, the Jeep liberty. also a good off roader.
as a few ppl have pointed out the X3 was not all that tough off road according to top gear.

Mr.Vercetti I would say stay away from the X3.. get that small lexus SUV.. more reliable, cheaper to maintain. and more comfertable than an X3.

if you were born in the cayenne and never went out, yes X5 is tiny compared to it. But the cayenne is SOOOO ugly that I dont even care how it performs. Id take X5 ANY DAY

Personally cayenne's design doesn't bother me at all nonetheless it is really generally considered as pretty ugly ...hence a facelift is said to come in a very short time and its successor is already in development.

i've already watched it... well,i reckon Clarkson's opinions are not always the right ones to follow.I favour Tiff as he's more like an expert.
