Great review- especially as I am in exactly in the same boat as you are. I drive an E92 335 and my lease expires at the end of the year. I need a bigger car so the X5 or new 5er are up for consideration. Did you look at or consider the 535 wagon? It must be bigger than the sedan- and the back seats recline on the wagon! We also get the larger diesel engine for the X5 in Australia (X5 40d!) so it makes that option more tempting for me. Want to see and drive the wagon first though.
