it is a good looking car except from the rear, some days i do think my D4 looks dated (know it is underneath) but then on others i think it looks right up there especially when i see its reflection in windows. Its gone past being a bit dated and is now so different to anything else it catches attention.
Having had mine valued by Merc, Volvo, Audi and Porsche dealers i can tell you all of the sales team complimented it on looks one in particularly was all over it stating it looks the dogs B's.
Anyway, the D5 does look good. If i get one ill be searching for a Rack and Ladder to add to it which will butch it up a bit more and hopefully break that god awful rear view up a bit! MY06 S - Gone but not forgotten
MY12 HSE - Gone
MY16 HSE Luxury - Sold
MY20 D5 HSE - Sold
Current RR L460 PHEV

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That aside, I am tempted towards the D5, but don't know I can justify it. I dont work, so I just use it for shopping and the odd trip.
The DS suits my needs apart from sheer presence and being that bit higher up and to be honest, from the photos, it's just a bit of a smaller clone.
That said, sometimes your heart rules the head or as SWMBO says, if you don't watch it, you'll be the richest corpse in the graveyard.

I didn't buy my D4 for it looks & am not buying a D5 for looks. Better off roading, more modern conveniences, fear of dreaded 7 year service among many reasons.
Yes regarding valuation I got, what I think is a great price, wondering if D5 sales take off ..... Peter

It would be interesting to see a D5 and a D4 side by side to compare size (which of course as every girl will tell you) matters.
