Hi John, we spoke last when you changed your RS4 to 635D.

Good post, and I agree with all that you say. I will be writing my review to add to our initial test of the 35d last week.

I have a 35d on loan from BMW's press fleet, which was delivered last Friday and it's the second X6 that I've driven, both of which have greatly impressed me. We just came back from a drive this evening, covering every type of road from town to motorway to twisty country road, and I'm even more impressed by BMW's achievement.

I love the look of this car, it looks so much better in the metal than in pictures. Despite looking awkward in pictures, it's just so deliberately designed and must be the best Bangle-era design yet.

I took a few pictures next to a Range Rover Sport, just to illustrate how much more contemporary it looks.

Good news for me is that my own car (35d, Vermilion Red, 20" 5-spoke wheels) will be delivered this coming Thursday, just in time to hand this one back.
