Hi Marek, stumbled upon your video and wanted to let you know that it's a great review. Well done mate 😎

[@MDrives]

Thank you! I’m glad you liked it!

I have the same car but find the body roll in the corners is quite significant even in sport mode

[@MDrives]

Thanks for your comment. I guess this is very subjective. Maybe I was expecting it to feel more floaty.

[@Charlie_PE1]

It’s not compared to most SUVs. Compared to a hatchback or saloon or whatever sure.

[@MDrives]

@@Charlie_PE1I think it handles better than many saloons

[@Charlie_PE1]

@@MDrives in 95% of driving situations I agree. If you are throwing it round bends at high speeds sure you’ll get a bit of body roll but it’s really nothing major

[@MDrives]

@@Charlie_PE1 to me it felt great. No complains from me in handling department

[@Cybernezz]

You should have had a play with the launch control when you launched, for such a huge bus - it does a good job launching.

Great video Marek - I wonder how this would stack up against a 5 touring value wise

[@MDrives]

Thanks Joe. I only drove 5 series in F chassis so can’t comment on it, but it’s a fantastic car.

Use/used both in 40d. In terms of driving, 540dT is unbeatable. Especially with AD suspension and M seats. Very high speed reveals huge differences in the way this car behaves. But if you do not need a motorway F1 bolid and you can benefit from higher ground clearance & overall comfort, X5 40d would be a perfect allrounder.

@Jarek1749 thanks for your comment. Regards 👋

Nice family car 👍 I've still got my M135i N55 can't really find anything as much fun to drive after all the mods I've done unless I spend a fortune on something 🙈

[@MDrives]

I’m not surprised. If I wouldn’t jump to the M2 I would still be in my m135i

[@jamesmoffatt6392]

Can’t believe you didn’t clean the car for the review.

[@MDrives]

Sometimes I just don’t have enough time.

very nice review if the car is lowered you will get better fuel return by the mile as the car is coefficient aerodynamic yes im thinking of this car or the BMW iX1 X4 X6 mach-E ford, and Mercedes-Benz Eqc Estate EQC 400 300KW AMG LINE PREMIUM 80KWH 5DR AUTO i think however the next car is Electric for me the one thing i will say all cars filler fuel or Electric points are all wrong in most cars as wee drive and overtake on the right the filler is in a dangerous place especially if you have stopped on the motor way say for example your Electric car has no more miles on it charging it with cars flying by you its not a good idea where as for the FORD Mach-E is passenger from side perfect for not getting RAN OVER same with the Benz Eqc Estate wrong side thanks 👍👍👍 i forgot to add calling out the Recovery people to come and charge the car

[@MDrives]

Thank you for your comment

[@aerotus888]

Answer is no

[@MDrives]

I have to disagree. It definitely was positive surprise.

Der öffentliche Straßenverkehr ist nicht zum spielen, und auf der Nordschleife macht er das was er soll, perfekt performen. Über die Digitalisierung sollte man sich nicht mehr aufregen, das ist der Fortschritt, und wir sind schon sehr rückständig. Dann ist das Auto "überperformant", aber man möchte noch 300kg weniger. Es wird sehr viel Meinung geäußert, teilweise deutlich zu dramatisch.

[@MDrives]

Thank you for your comment. I really enjoyed the car and would be happy to drive it on a daily basis. You are correct, I’m probably a bit of a dinosaur these days. I like new tech but when it comes to cars, I think I still like them to be a bit more old school.
