    Yes, i've read all your posts and heres what i've concluded.
    • You've never owned an X6
    • You've never driven an X6
    • You've never been in an X6
    • You havent physically seen the size of the boot of an X6

    However you've formed your "opinion" based on -
    • What you've read on the internet
    • What Jeremy Clarkson / Top Gear has told you to believe
    • Age old stereotypes
    • Personal prejudices

    Your own personal yardstick for how good a car is is how "practical" it is (what an interesting life you must lead). If a car isnt practical, then it isnt good. (Tell that to Ferrari)

    But that seems to you to form the basis for a balanced, reasoned, objective opinion?

    , i've read all your posts and heres what i've falsely concluded.
    You've never owned an X6did i say that?
    You've never driven an X6certainly didnt say that, it wouldnt be true
    You've never been in an X6see above
    You havent physically seen the size of the boot of an X6I have, although that bears no relevance. A hatch that opens 900mm above ground will be reletive though.

    Let me correct that for you.

    Now who used links to online reveiws to base their arguement on? Not me. But at least on of the the reveiws you posted AGREED with what I said. Also several of top gears online/magazine reveiws say the car is pointless rather than impractical. I havent said its point less. Also dismissing topgear out of hand is niave. Yes they do !!!! about but they also know a bit about their trade. Then there were two anticdotal stories, one from the op and one from your self regarding difficulties experienced regarding the boot yet I have old (the car made its debut in 2007 so not sure how old theses sterotyoes are) sterotypes to peddle? Along with personal predjudices. Cant remeber that happening at all but still thats fine, make up what you will.

    Protip: a comeback only works when it's typed in semi literate English.

    I'm also deducting points for use of the quite cringe worthy term 'MSE career'.

    You seem to be clinging to this notion that Absolute practicality is everyone's top priority. It isn't.

    And the height of the rear boot sill is an observation, not a difficulty.

    I can just imagine you talking to a Ferrari owner - "no, no, no. You've clearly bought the wrong car here haven't you? How can you possibly expect to get £150 of shopping from lidl in the boot of this? Clearly a Ford fusion diesel is the sensible choice"
