hi mate im currently drivin a Q7 3.0, nice enough motor. quality interior, good engine pulls well for such a heavy motor however not the most economical but as im running a impreza and a rs4 cab its better than those
another thing is the s-line is quite hard but i prefer it like that rather than having a boat like drive. its also quite large and im used to having big cars rr and rrs, but with that you do get more space alot better on long drives. overall very impressed with it

Parents have a 2.5l TDI Altitude Touareg and is very good other than it eats its tyres. First set lasted all of 8000 miles but my dad managed to get a free set under warranty after some complaining to VW.
I believe changing to other brands helps, avoid Pirrelli as fitted from new.
I am in the market for a simlar sized car with a similar buget and my search has been narrowed down to a Touareg or RRS HSE, the sport having a bigger boot which will probably swing it at the end of the day, big dog and bags to accommodate every weekend + 3 bikes.
Tony thanks for your thoughts but i will ignore them if you don't mind.
Freedom of choice and all that

Not keen on the looks of it also brother inlaw works in a split dealership with one half being Subaru. Sales are really low and other dealers have closed down in my area so can't really see Subaru being in uk for that much longer imo.

Test drove both the Touareg and the Q7 before going for the X5.
x5 is much better handling that the VW and the Audi - Audi was smooth but suffered understeer. Heard that the Q7 tyre wear is as bad the VW, X5 manages 15k miles.
Touareg had an odd seating position, made the car feel huge, near gearbox might be better, but the old one was rubbish.
Had the X5 3 1/2 years now, never had a problem, fuel is between 26 and 32 mpg, best I managed was 36 mpg over a 400 mile trip.

Yep. We were getting 38mpg on the way up from Manchester to our home just North of Glasgow.
Currently sitting just above 30mpg, with a lot of town driving.
The parents X5 3.5d was around 28mpg overall and that's with my mum kicking it's **** in everywhere.
