Like this quote on the Top Gear site:

"You won't be liked - nobody who can afford an imposing, seven-seat behemoth should expect popularity. But it's mainly jealousy. That and very grudging respect."

Test drive booked as soon as the dealer has one. Also going to try the new X3 35d and an E70 40d as well. Must keep the options open :)
