A Monster on Wheels – The BMW X6
The most recent addition to the BMW line-up (at the time of writing) is the X6, which looks like an exercised and bulked up X5. Over the years BMW has tried to compete with the likes of Land Rover for the title of “king of the 4×4’s” and many would say that they have done quite well; matching but not surpassing the likes of the Range Rover Sport (with the X3 / X5 models). However, with the introduction of the new BMW X6, it appears as though BMW may now be well on the way to taking over the 4×4 market segment as it is a vehicle, which oozes with style and is very different in design to most other 4×4 units. The official class that the X6 has been allocated to is the “Mid-Size Luxury Crossover”, but for marketing purposes, it was advertised as a “Sports Activity Coupe”, which is probably a more accurate description. The thing is, this is no ordinary BMW; it is not a used BMW X5 and it is certainly not an M3 sports car – it is a mixture of the two. Too describe the vehicle would be to use terms such as bold, bulky and sturdy; but really, it is so much more. As things stand new BMW X6 sales are increasing in numbers and so to those that want to own a new piece of eventual history, this would make for an ideal purchase. What the introduction of this vehicle has done though, is free up some space for the sale of the used BMW X5, which has now seen its price reduced. Of course this is quite regularly the case whenever a manufacturer deploys a new addition to the range, but looking at things from the outside, it seems that there are a few bargains out there for used BMW X5 units; ideal for those of you that love to get an excellent deal on used cars!
