I think your dates are good. Aside of specific months, the current X5 is realistically going to be replaced in 2013 - at some point. So to purchase now is a very bad time I think, as you're too early for any "special offers" on the end of line, and you will only be 18 to 20 months in the current shape, before the next shape starts to appear on your neighbours' driveway.

I was still moving lots of "young child" stuff around when I had my E61 - no complaints at all on space, so I imagine that the F11 is equally as proficient in regards space for those baby / toddler gear requirements.

My kids - a bit older now - have plenty of space in the F10 for themselves and all of their stuff.

Cheers.
