My 4,4i

Hi, this is my first post, so please be kind Couldn't find any specific gallery / show-section on the forum.

I bought this '02 X5 a couple weeks ago. It's my 3rd BMW. Currently also have a '01 330i Touring and used to have a '01 330i Cab while living in London, UK until 2008.

Now I live in NORWAY (Scandinavia) and with the worlds highest car taxes the X5s don't come cheap here. There are some 3.0i and 3.0d around, but anything more powerful is very rare. This car would cost 200.000 USD back in 2002. That's without any additional equipment, of which this one have almost anything.

I bought the 4,4i mainly because we will use it a lot for pulling our horse trailer (see bottom pic).

The only things I plan to do with it currently are changing the headlamps to facelift ones and adding sunfilm.

Nice ride.

For some reason, I like when a car if full of factory options... You don't have to do any mod, and all what you have there just fits in place as it should...sometimes mods can get you gethosized...

Have a safe motoring and welcome!

You will like the pulling power of the X, and there is more involved than just changing the headlamps to facelift ones, do a search on the forums and you will find a guide to face-lift your X.

Thanks all

SuaveX5: I'm really only interested in the headlamps. At least for now

Cole: haha, no. Our horses are brown and red.
