3.0 TD HSE (245BHP) - mid spec model
Before I bought the X5 I did consider the RRS as the V8 diesel had just be launched (now dropped from the RRS) but I just didn't find it that sporty and more comfy. I wanted the sporty ride and not the armchair.
This new facelift version is a much better drive now that they have added the dynamic setting to the suspension options.
Pick up was good up to a certain speed but then I found it underpowered, which is probably understandable given the blunt front end and the fact it is 100BHP down on mine.
Did 500 miles in it in all and took on to the Sister-in-laws farm were it went only marginally off road as I did not want to damage it.
Inside much improved but I am afraid I forgot to take any pics

Here are some before and after shots - I thought I better take it back clean !
