Hey, strayed a little close to personal remarks here but am enjoying this debate! A new Panda vs an old estate BMW is not a great comparison, they cost much the same but fit different needs, all pragmatic, none too flashy, each owner happy. It gets more interesting to compare an Audi Q7 with a Bentley Bentayga. Bentley are a coach works dressing one into the other. One is a gratuitously expensive 4x4, the other is simply a way to demonstrate great wealth. Neither are practical or pragmatic purchases and customers of those cars are simply not worried about diminished return on investment of an engineering or financial kind.
