Need a new old car to replace our much loved E53 X5 which has sadly been condemned at the last MOT.

Will predominantly be used by my wife for local trips, and I will take it for a decent commute at least once a week.

Went to see a lovely 2011 RR Sport TDV6 HSE Luxury today. 110k miles, great condition and decent history with belt and transmission service done, and the MOT history reads well.

Price just under £6k at a dealer with a warranty. Very tempted.

Will such a car make me want to have a bath with a toaster? I am aware of the crankshaft issues, but as a serial 996 owner am generally an optimist.

Views, encouragement or otherwise appreciated.

Alternatives would be another SUV such as E70 X5 or Cayenne. Or something sensible like an XC60.
