Yes i know they are not the nicest looking but agree that they do have presence on the road.
Reason for not considering range rover is poor reliability - near bottom in JD power surveys - after my merc i thats the last thing i need.
Did briefly contemplate white and matte black but then common sense returned and i plumped for silver with red leather - enjoying it so far.
I-Drive not as bad as i remember in my 7 series - still prefer Comand.
