Took the family on a 600 mile round trip to Tekapo for the weekend. X5 ran flawlessly the whole time and returned 7.5l/100km (32mpg/US) while fully loaded.



It gets COLD overnight up in the mountains… the frost on the car in the mornings was next-level...



(That's the roof of the car - not the lawn!)





20 minutes with the Webasto heater running via the remote (from inside the house!) and the X5 was clear of screen and warm of cabin.

Very glad I fitted the new 900CCA battery before the winter...
