I had to smile when I read about the X6's ring lap time in the press material yesterday. BMW were comparing it with the Maserati 3200GT and claiming that the X6 was 2 seconds faster around the infamous 'Ring. Priceless, just what I need it for..

We're aiming to upload a video and first drive of the X6 to our site next Monday, and just trying to sort out a deal to keep an X6 at the office for a few days next week. Meanwhile mine has arrived in the country but I can't take delivery until 31st May when the official customer launch is run.

p.s. I am delighted to say that I now have an official X6 model on my desk, compliments of BMW's press launch. And it's Vermilion Red too..
