My X5 got "sold" from under me!

Got notified today that my X5 was sold from under me. WTF!!!!

When I chased up the details, I found it was a data entry error and the actual vehicle ownership change that should have taken place was a 2005 BMW 5 Series 3.0d in silver (and not my 2005 BMW X5 3.0d in Stirling Grey).

I tracked down the offending vehicle that caused me and my family hours of grief - can you spot the cause?

Ownership now resolved and I still have my fantastic X5 in the driveway - phew!

That's no 5 series. That is an E90, funny mix up due to a typo nonetheless.

getting my X5 back from Spa today. I had the 8 done yesterday and I can NOT believe how beautiful he dressed the paint up, and the interior is nothing short of brand new. saved me from a paint job for sure. I suspect my X (and silverado tomorrow) will look just as fantastic!

Winter is coming...

This time of year is characterised by golden leaves, cool mornings and homeowners carting firewood...



Need a taller trailer...
