In my opinion this is alot more modern and simpler to use than the compicated and generic interior of the BMW’s. They all seem to have the same design and all use that over complicated i-Drive. By the Realist’s logic because Aston Martin was owned by Ford at one point that makes all A-M’s Mustangs .

I think that the Jag is superb. I am determined to have one in 2 years.

Hi rym, just read the goings on back there re the X6, it gets hot in here sometimes,but you seem to handle yourself very well, good on ya.
Just to clarify a point, I have lived in wonderful Oz for 15 years, take care and look forward to your insightful words soon.
I love Jags by the way, but will never be able to afford a new one in this lifetime, maybe a 20 yo 1.

Gidday Allergic one, it’s spring here in Oz and allergies are in full flight here.

No harm done and thanks for your kind words. The only BMW of late that has got my attention again is the BMW Vision EfficientDynamic, it this is the sign of things to come from BMW, I think there’s hope that BMW may have a product in their line up for me again. Let’s hope that not too long in the future as they do have great engineering depth. It’s just their style and design has left me cold for the last few Bangle years.

Cheers.

To rym, from the bottom of my heart I apologies for thinking you may have been BM, I didn’t fully think you were as you actually make sense and seem like a grown-up with fair comments and as you say, not totally biased towards BM’s.
I have owned, fixed up from a write-off, and consequently driven a BMW all over the north of the UK in my past, and I remember the experiences with happiness. I too do not like all things BMW because of this, although I do appreciate thier engineering expertise.
Look forward to reading more of your comments in the future rym,
lots of love, Agro-nup. ( for now )

Nope, I’m not BM. I did cross path with her over the X6 M forum here in CA.

I assume she drives a BMW also and that’s about the only commonality there is.

I like BMWs but not one eyed enough to like everything from BMW.

I would jump wagon if there’s an alternative better product on its own merit.

If you have any beef with BM, take it else where as you will be barking up the wrong tree here.

Well have your misguided and stupid opinions then (though I don’t know how you can be so contemptuous about my “essay” and then write a series of longer comments) but please, change your name; it’s misleading.
If you’re really stupid enough to think that Jaguars are Tatas just because Tata own them, there is only one name for you and it’s not Realist, it’s Idiot, or perhaps something that would have this comment deleted. You also really need to stop contradicting yourself; first writing that you’ve nothing against Jaguar and then making it obvious that you do.

Please dont tell me that “rym’ is Bavarian Missile, please no !

I hope it isn’t as I finally thought she had f***** off at last.

I had wondered if she was using a differnt name, but hadn’t noticed the excessive use of cutting and pasting with very little content otherwise.

C’mon “rym” identify yourself, please tell me NobWrangler is wrong.

I couldn’t give a toss for who owns the company but the brand is Jaguar, not Tata. Get it through your thick head…

Yes you should trade in your M5 for a XF. It’s that good.

Oh wait, perhaps you won’t be able to because the depreciation on the M5 has reached flatline.
