I've never seen an X without a moonroof

Disels don't have moonroofs...

Wished we could have a special edition here in the States... Congrats on a excellent choice. I love the color.

Why is that? (That diesels don't have moonroofs)

Richard: That is a gorgeous X5. We've had a few others like yours posted and everytime I see one I wish they offered it here in The States. Very nice indeed! I don't however, think you're going to be too eager to trade your E53 for the E70 if the E70 proves to be as big and heavy as I think it will be. It will likely be a very different feeling X than ours.

I didn't think it was a diesel vs. petrol thing. I believe that the moonroof is optional on all X5's in the UK irrespective of fuel type.

I think they make it optional since there is never any sun to enjoy.

Considered the moon roof but prefer climate control - yes could have specced the moon roof as an option (available on all UK X5's) but where do you stop? My extra's cost £7k could have spent £12k!

You made some good choices. I don't use my moonroof very often and I live in Southern California where it is sunny virtually everyday.

If you think spending what you did on options was crazy, try building a Porsche one day on their website. That is truly frightening.

is the climate control an option or something? See the last thing I wanted on my RR was a rear entertainment system since I don't and cannot stand children It was tuff finding one in cali!
