considering 08 X5,still quality concerns ?

[chris609]

hello everyone,I'm about to get a new car/SUV (replacing a Volvo XC90)and I'm split between MB ML and BMW X5. I have owned several MB cars and suvs in the past and there are greate cars to drive but with a lot of and problems and although they claim "major quality improvements"looking at the MB forums I'm not totaly convinced that its the case.I understand that most of the people here are BMW "loyalists" but does anyone have any advice to give based on the ownership expireance on what I should be aware of (if any) if I decide to go with the X5 ?
Thanks in advance
