What should I replace my Range Rover Sport with?
As I approach retirement I probably need to give up my long term affair with Range Rover Sports and settle for something a bit more modest. I love the higher driving position of the RRS, the luxury feel and the brisk engine, but I don't don't like the high servicing and Land Rover warranty costs. And I don't really need something that big any more. Options I am considering include Volvo XC60, BMW X3 and Audi Q5, but I'm nervous I will miss the opulence of the Range Rover. What would you recommend? Budget £40-£50k, new or up to two years old.

All of the suggestions you make would make a good replacement for your Range Rover, as they should be cheaper to run but also offer a comfortable and luxurious cabin. Choosing a higher specification car will ensure you get the opulence you are looking for - you may also wish to consider the Lexus RX and NX models, which have been praised for their quality and high standard of interior finish.
