I was testing out the X6 today at the Millbrook handling circuit and even though the X6 had adaptive ride (which I set to Sport) plus 20" wheels, I thought it rode every bit as well as the Jaguar XF that I drove along the same course. There was a 'nuggety' quality to the ride, which made it feel sporty, but it travelled over road imperfections with less impact on ridge quality than the Jag.

The X6 I drove also had Active Steering, which worked very well on the X6. I've driven it on other BMW's but didn't like it, whereas it seems to suit the X6. I have ordered my own car 'without' active steering, so I will be able to let you know how they compare when I pick my car up next week.
