there is a school of thoguht that suv are safer in a crash. certainly in this case, they wont go under any other cars. the other side of the coin is that they are higher, heavier so stopping distance will be longer.
dont know why he chose x5 over q7 however. I imagine most new cars will have decent ncap rating these days

i couldn't drive a suv straight from my lowered e60, it would be dangerous.
Some people say the porsche cayenne is immune, but i wouldn't want to corner up tms very quicky in one, any guys with experience of driving suvs HARD up tms?

actually the main prob with suv is the high center of gravity, that they can turn over when changing directions at high speed, remember fifth gear's test using a range rover?
