Farewell to my 4.8is
After nearly 3 years of 'mostly' enjoyable ownership (plus some well documented trauma) my 4.8is leaves for a new home tomorrow. It's been great to post on X5world and share my highs and lows.

I decided not to buy the new E70 X5 but instead wait until my X6 order is fulfilled. That gives me probably 18 months or more to drive something else.

Guesses...?

Well it's not a BMW, nor a Porsche, but it is the 'only' other SUV built from the same mould as the 4.8is, weighing the same as the 4.8is but with another 150bhp..

I will post my impressions after I collect it this weekend.
