Test drove the 30d UK version last month for a couple of hours when my X5 was in for service. Dealer had in in as demo with all options.

Its a big car for UK roads but will sit nicely in US market. Personally its better in the flesh than in pics, ride was good and responsive enough for a 3 ltr oil burner. 7 seater with electric access to rear seats which are still for kids or fairly agile adults.

Would I have one, prob not, I'd stick with X5 and add 3rd row for that very occasional use when carrying one of the kids friends etc.
