Sadly not in the UK as BWM UK still insist on selling those silly rear wheel drive only models, but in France I saw a new shape 535 xd saloon making its way south. For the unknowing, the x denotes 4 wheel drive, and is very popular in south france, switzerland, the alpes etc... They brought a few boring underpowered 525xi petrol models to the UK in the 90's but didn't really market it much... They do the 3 series 4 wheel drive too...

And did you know that BMW sells more 4x4's than any other premium brand, outselling Audi by around 40%.

I'm sure that would be due to the X5 & X3 sales. Remember that the 4x4 sales often don't relate to cars that have 4 wheel drive, merely the 'off-roaders' that companies sell. If this is the case then I'm not surprised they outsold Audi, because until the Q7, Audi didn't really have a '4x4' off road vehicle for sale.

Don't fancy going off roading in my A8 either, ta very much NONO3.GIF
