The Hire - BMW X5

Just came across this today, it features Clive Owen in short film driving what looks like a 4.4i BMW X5. I won't spoil it but you really appreciate what the X5 can do

These were first mentioned, on this forum, 4 years ago. Here's one of the earlier threads.

Ah yes, the M5 one, Star. It's always a crowd pleaser in the rare occasion I'm in a social setting.
