    GERMANS CREATE NEW KIND OF UGLY

    Those who have seen the newish BMW X6 on the road will know what i mean, it would have to be the fugliest most pointless vehicle i have ever seen even compared to some of ssssssssangyoong offerings.Virtually no rear window to speak of and boot space ? what space, you wouldnt even get a schnitzel in a paper bag in the back - and i thought the current toyota lineup was bad, what were they thinking.

    I like the way it looks, but I don't understand the point of it.

    No space, no offroad capability, poor onroad handling compared to a road car...

    I saw one on Strathpine Rd the other day, was it you Weeds?

    I commented, at the time, on how ugly and useless it looked.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    I have driven one, and they are a blast!!

    Wouldn't part with cash for one myself, but a lot of fun to boot about in. I still prefer my old M3.

    Top Gear last week-end (in the UK) had nothing nice to say about it either. Pointless! Compromised on-road by its height and compromised off-road by everything else.

    Here is the link to Jeremy Clarkson's "budget" Top Gear review...
