Driven one and have to say the 3.0d sport was much better.

Parents had their 8 week old 3.0D stolen a few weeks ago.

They can not find a replacement car in similar spec for love nor money. Still a 12 month wait in Germany (country of purchase) and similar in UK, and they not willing to pay a premium to speculators, so have gone the Cayenne route.

Not sure about the 3.0 petrol though, the diesel is the popular choice apparently.

Not strictly true, As the X5 3.0d costs around 34 grand and the Cayenne S 44 grand can you really see people stump up an extra 11 grand?

The X5 3.0d is very popular. And the Cayenne will not change that one bit.

Fair enough, the diesel isn't really a direct competitor. The 4.3 petrol or whatever is the one that suddenly looks very inadequate...

How much do VW charge for the Toerag diesel?

Tourag TDI? Hmmm, I think the 2.5 V6 TDI is about 30 grand, the V10 TDI about 50 grand!

The thing is, I think people who really want an X5 will not settle for anything else and the lead times for this car are a good example of this.

Maybe I'm biased, but I don't think you give up an order for a BMW and 'settle' for a Porsche. Maybe you do for a VW I guess...
