Hi all,
This is my first post here and I wondered what your opinions would be on getting my next car.
I like the RX300SEL, obviously, and the 3.0d X5. Now there is no way I am paying for a new X5 with options at BMW's prices, but I could get a second hand one for about 35K. Equally I could get a second hand SEL for about £33K - but would it be better to pay more and get a new one (hopefully at a discount)?
Also the better half doesn't like parking big cars - I currently have a RR and she has a Corsa (the Corsa is the more reliable!) so she wants to get a RAV4 and to pocket 10K (she's the sensible one).
So my two issues are... which is the better of my choices: new RX, used RX or used X5... and how can I convince swmbo that this is a better choice than a R4?

PS: Before everyone flames the X5, I do think that it makes a sound 2nd hand buy.
