The car
About this car in Nice
Over a month on the coast a car covers three or four thousand kilometres without ever doing anything dramatic — the airport, the coast road, the hill village, the supermarket at Saint-Laurent. The X5 30d is the one that makes that arithmetic comfortable: a 298 hp straight-six diesel, five seats, six cases, and the lowest running costs of the large SUVs here.
M Sport trim keeps it from looking like a base model at a hotel entrance, and the X5's footprint is about the practical limit for the car parks under Nice.
Give us the address and the time, and it will be there.
- Diesel six: the sensible SUV for a month on the coast
- Five seats, six cases, fits the city car parks
