REAL DEAL No but I know you can do this with the Volvo XC90. I used to own an 2017 XC90 but it had lots of reliability issues so I traded it in for a Q7. It’s been 2 years of ownership and no single issue. 2020 model is already arriving, not sure if you still would love the 2015- 2019 model

This was the car of my childhood, we had a black V8 TDI for 8 years which was a lovely machine, it chewed up motorway miles and could comfortably fit 7 people in (something the X5 and XC90 couldn’t). As an American (read: brash) family living in the UK who wanted something fast, it was perfect for us. Also, unpopular opinion - I really loved the styling 😂

@@gangigooga7710 I believe the X5 had a third row as an option, and not many people bought them. Around 2018 there were speculations that BMW was going to drop the third row option from the X5 because of the new at the time X7. I don't know if they actually did.

I bought one 6 months ago and although it's not the perfect car, I prefer it over the 3 Range Rovers I've owned and my wife's Discovery 4.

I have run it for 2 years and 36 thousand miles most of it towing a 2800kg trailer. It is fantastic , without the trailer it will do 25 mpg (even seen 30 once !) . with the trailer at about 5.5 tons total i still get 16-18 mpg . Reliability wise bearing in mind I have run it from 11-13 years old I have changed 1 battery (15 mins not 2 hours to change) just done discs and pads all round at £300 the lot . Front tyres last 25k miles for a £100 a tyre chinese brand, rears about 15k miles. oil changes at 6k miles (9k advised) £120 for 10 litres of castrol and filter . Bose Sound system is amazing , On air suspension it just floats over bumps and can drop the rear to get under my trailer hitch, with the reverse camera it is so easy. With 340 bhp I cruise without ever struggling . In short I love it, had Land rovers all my life and will never go back , and yes it does not have a low box but with 4wd , auto and 340 bhp , i have never got stuck on grass even with the 2.8 ton trailer !

[@NigelMarston]

Another good review. I'm always interested in SUV reviews to see how opinions compare with my Merc GL. In common with the GL, you noted the Q7 has vague steering and the battery under the driver's seat (bloody awkward and heavy to lift out - ask me how I know). The GL has far more room for the 3rd row passengers - comfy even for adults. Both have ridiculously small boot spaces with the 3rd row seats available but massive space with them laid flat, and van-like space with the 2nd row laid flat too. Smaller wheels are so much better. Mine has 21" wheels which look great but there are limited options for tyres and they simply don't ride as well as the smaller ones. Air suspension is epically amazing in both and not at all unreliable if you consider getting replacement compressors and airbags from anyone other than a main dealer. Even coil springs break on such heavy cars (my old ML broke two sets of rears). The 3-litre V6 diesel in the Q7 is quieter than in the GL, and the Q7 in general drives ore "car-like" than the GL. The X5 is similarly more car-like than the ML. Mercedes builds more "truck-like" SUVs it seems. However the GL can be had with height adjustable suspension, low range and diff lockers - all of which are on mine. The Q7 clearly wasn't aimed at exactly the same market, nevertheless I would contend that all of these SUVs can be made more useful off road by shoeing them with gnarlier tyres. I intend to prove this in Feb 2020 by taking a few different sorts of big SUVs to the Arctic circle to play in the snow.

One thing with diesel cars is, you can buy diesel in bulk as long (obviously) you have somewhere to put the say 2000 litre tank, think my mate paid £1.05 per litre buying in bulk, usually the more you buy the greater the savings, instead of £1.35 at the pump. so over £2000 initial outlay, and you get to fill up at home. :)

Can you store that much at your house, though? How long until that £2K has paid for itself also..

[@RobG001]

@@SuperFIFTHGEAR sorry, just seen your message, I presume you can, or the delivery company would not deliver in bulk to the house. As for your other question, you obviously save say 30p on every litre of diesel you buy. so it's not like you buying a new car and paying a say 5k premium to get a diesel. In which case your question would be valid. :) If I have misunderstood your question I'm obviously having a blond moment. :)

One of my best friends from uni drove us from London to Paris in a Q7 years ago. They are super comfortable in an RV kind of way. I miss my road trips to France 😢

Me too

@@HighPeakAutos I love driving from London to France on a Friday night but for now a drive to the beautiful English coast will always hit the spot 😊

I like your honesty, I am used to driving large cars but the doors would be a problem I could see my self trying to clamber through the back to get in at a car park but I really like the interior of the car

Do a review of a pickup truck: Isuzu Dmax (please) / Toyota Hilux / Nissan Navara / Mitsubishi L200

Really enjoy watching the scenery especially that wall made out of rock

Volkswagen also made an SUV before Audi (the Touareg).

Q7 is basically a Touareg and a Cayenne fussed together.

[@DaveDVideoMaker]

I know that, but in the Q7 you can get seven seats while in the Touareg and Cayenne, you can’t.

[@777Lxxx]

Dave D'Video Maker well of course they will make some changes and specific things unique to Q7.. I actually own a Q7, it is the best car compared to its counterparts

[@DaveDVideoMaker]

All right. My dad has an X5 with 7 seats but he rarely uses the 7 seats.

Great iiOpinion but it takes you very long time to express what’s on your mind you have to find a way to make it shorter and more adjustable for general public

[@HighPeakAutos]

I'm trying to be balanced and fair giving pros and cons :)

Reviews of everyday cars...although here you bashed the Q7 which was is a total success for Audi. Just in Europe over 400000 sold since launch and that for a high end vehicle is awesome...I personally love the looks and did see once the awesome V12 Q7 what a beast..way ahead of it's time to all the Mega SUV's today.

[@HighPeakAutos]

They are popular and have sold well. Everytime I get one in stock they sell fairly well but I dont get the appeal.

@@HighPeakAutos fair enough not for all!
