Mrs was hit up the back in her car - fully comp and so took hers away and replaced with this..........



Deffo not my cup of tea - fookin awful thing. To think people spend £60k on these

Its a 62 plate with all the toys - drives terrible. I would be very upset if I forked out my hard earned and ended up with this.

Never been a fan of BMW's anyway - this thing just emphsises my dislike.

nice to see our insurance companies can afford to dish out courtesy cars like this too! What car did your wife have?

Renault Grand Espace - we insisted that it was replaced like for like as we are a family of 5 + boyfriends etc. They rang and said they were struggling to find a suitable replacement but we pay fully comp and really do use 7 seats. They turned up with this.

The one thing it is very bad for it grabbing white lines in the road. Does this and takes you and you find yourself correcting / compensating. Probably something to do with the 315/30/20 tyres.

If you think that's bad to drive,you should drive its competitors,the X5 is the best driver out of them.

Do you think her Renault Grand Espace drives better than the X5??

Absolutely without doubt. My wife is of the same opinion and is not impressed. I would almost say that the bloody thing is dangerous.

I am not used to 4x4's granted but that feeling it gives me is very disconcerting and its manners on the road for a brand new modern vehicle that costs circa £60k is pretty poor. The Espace is actually fairly neutral and docile - it behaves.

There must be something wrong with it...

A friend of mine that lives over the road from me has just had his Audi A6 reversed into.He has a new BMW 3 series estate as a courtisy car and he said its horrible and the dash is really plastic looking.
