Advise needed for a new purchase

Hi Everyone,

I'd like to have your opinion on what to buy next.

I'm currently driving a 535d F10 BMW. The care is awesome, engine as well with an incredibly low consumption. Just love it.

Unfortunately, due to some health problem (basically, my back hurts), I have to consider buying another car in which I could enter more easily and have a higher position on the road.

I'm 2m08 tall btw

I have 2 little girls, 1 and 4 years old.

Due to my height, I always have to pull the front seat back to the maximum, hence leaving not much room for the people behind me. (although in my 5 serie, it's still "ok". Not plenty of room but "just enough". Some extra space would be welcome of course)

I love the X6 and planned to buy a 4.0d X6 but everyone tells me that given the room I need behind the front seat, I should consider buying an X5 instead.

What do you think?

Is there more room (for the legs of course) at the back seats in an X6 than in a 5 series?

Your opinion is most welcome

thanks in advance and drive safe
