Yes, all of the above. But mine is 11 years old and designed without a second thought for the environment..
Tyres are about £220 a corner too (I've just discovered)...
About 31mpg, highest tax price insurance is cruel for a 41 year old with a clean licence etc..
Definitely do your research before laying down the cash but if your do, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

You must be buying the runflats?
I just paid £258 for a rear set of Goodyear Eagle3s in 255/30/19.

D5 XC60 is plenty powerful. And you could always look at getting it remapped...
£220 for one tyre though. Crikey

On the M57 engine of 2007 vintage? I’m 99% certain it’s the ZF box. If you fancy some better / faster / smoother changes, check out the XHP software.

Did I mention I had it remapped...? Not done a rolling road but it is flipping rediculous..
