Just recieved an invitation from BMW UK....

The BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo and BMW X1 continue our passion for innovation; giving you greater flexibility, refinement, performance and space. And the BMW X5 M and BMW X6 M reflect our strong BMW M race-bred heritage, powering from 0-62mph in just 4.7 seconds thanks to their 555hp V8 engines. etc etc

Just looked at the models and they are all sooo ugly (possibly the X5M is passible and keeps it's RV looks), but to me they seem to be a half way house between a sports saloon and a usable RV... Are they just cheap RV's or expensive saloons.

If the 5 series eventually morph's into a 5 series grand turismo look, I guess I will be moving on ...but not until i've tried the F10!!!

Or am i turning into an old fart.

Idk I like the x6 and am thinking about getting one, I never thought about the way BMW puts copious amounts of quality into their builds till I watched the DVD BMW sent us when we bought my wifes new 328i. I had no idea the x5 and x6's frames were actually formed around the headlight housing awesome!
