Great

* Driving one is so enjoyable the Government will probably ban it
* The interior is as luxurious as a room at The Ritz
* It gets full marks for safety, with stability control and airbags galore

Gripes

* It'll leave a big dent in your bank balance
* There isn't much headroom in the back - beware messed-up hair!
* The iDrive sat-nav system is far from straightforward

The dashboard's easy to navigate but the sat-nav iDrive system's a pain
SpaceSpace rating - 3 out of 5 stars
Long legs can unfold but there's a lack of headroom in the back
SafetySafety rating - 5 out of 5 stars
Outstanding: it scored top marks in crash tests and has all-round airbags, stability control and run-flat tyres
Standards and extrasStandards and extras rating - 3 out of 5 stars
Even basic cars have air-con but upgrade and you get delights such as voice-activated controls
