Having owned 2 E83s, I was convinced that I'd buy the new one when it was released. Have to say I've been very disappointed by its looks - not ugly, just not striking from any angle. (IMO)

Here's the official BMW X4 Concept video released now.

I'm not going to try to pronounce the exterior Designer's name though....

I do like the look of that, but wonder if it will be just too small in the rear as the roofline seems to come down quite quickly.

Probably the same as happened at Audi.  The senior designer was poached by Kia......and their new designs are Gangnam Style.

Sorry could've resisted that but failed, even though I know 535dboy will be along with some insult or other about my appalling humour.... :P

Have Audi changed their designs in the past 10 years? I had a 2003 A4 and it doesn't look much different to the new one.

I think the designer of the spotty DRL's from Audi went to Land Rover for a stint, but where he is now is anyone's guess

Quite like that and also the wife's has approved it  ::), so this could be our next x as the wife now drives the x5 90% of the time and that size is not needed now that I drive my pimped van most of the time .
