Thanks for all your input guys - sounds like the D5 is the best option! I went to a dealer today to check them out and very nice they look too - the only thing is now the issue for us is the boot - it's big for sure - but the way it curves at the back is a bit of a problem (most cars seem to be like this these days!) as we have a Newfie dog and he needs to fit in... and then I had a look at the new XC90 and what a gorgeous beast it is to, with loads of room in the boot - only thing it is out of budget! Considering a second mortgage now Thanks again for all your advice!
