tailgate question?
Does anyone know if the E70 will have a one piece tailgate like the X3 or a 2 piece tailgate like the E53 X5.
I hope its still 2 piece like the E53

Actually BMW stole this feature from Range Rover (when they owned Rover back in the day...). So a bunch of Range Rover models (maybe all?) have the two piece tailgate...

One of the Rover jeeps also has that. Sorry, the X5 isn't that special.

The Volvo XC90 also has a similar design - a short section on the bottom, longer section on top.

Well this too was stolen from Range Rover, considering that Range Rover and Volvo both lie under the same parent company - Ford...
