Thanks for the input. Since I first saw the `X5 stuck on the beach` video on youtube, I avoid getting the X any near the shoreline

Anyway, I really can't find find any reason for which the AD versions would misbehave. In fact, on paper, when a wheel goes deeper (a hole for instance), the AD should tend to push that car corner down, to compensate the detected body roll, hence actually trying to help. I guess all this `no AD for off-road` fuss came up because people wrongfully interpreted the AD as stiffer shocks/springs.
