Yes I think I'm just going to proceed with caution and make sure I test drive the car well. Like you my last 4-5 cars have been German and I can't see myself buying anything else. American cars like Ford and Vauxhall are 'ok' if you only want a car to get you from A to B but they lack the style of a German car. As you said, Asian cars are a bit plastic inside and they also tend to be a little ugly. People either love them or hate them. Most of the Asian on-road 4x4 look like people carriers withthe suspension raised by an inch or two! I like Lexus saloons but the RX is ugly ugly ugly, I'd rather have a Kia Sorento or even a Shogun.

I'll just have to be careful, look at a few X's and make sure that if there's anything that doesn't seem quite right then just walk away. I'll also investigate aftermarket warranties and will consider BMW Approved Used as I may be able to beat the dealers down a bit given not many people are buying cars right now.

All hinges on me being able to sell the Porsche. That might be quite difficult at the moment. I've had it advertised for a few days and no enquiries.

Edit:

That said I've just had someone call who wants to look at it Tomorrow. Had better get out and wax it while there's a break in the rain!
