Hi Harry

Thanks for you comments, I actually owned 4 E60s all with run flats, and cannot agree with that opinion here in the UK, Yes E60 drove hard but that was rewarded with good dynamics. We actually used my brother in-laws 07 plate car last week to compare the ride, I have to say his 130k miler was better!
Yes I agree its a big car, but surely if its a reskined 7 someone should tell the marketing people!
My car history with BMW is a bit mad, in the last 8 years I have had 16 cars from BMW some were for my wife.
A brief list X3,X5,X6,X6M,5(E60)6 Coupe(Last one)7(F01)M3 & Finally 6 GC
So I feel I understand the cars better with a history like mine.
But I will have to agree with you it could be the combo of 20 inch wheels runflats and the size and weight.But then why design a car like that?
I have to say its when you drive the car normally it irritates the most.
You must have smooth roads over there.
Thanks for your input anyway
