Get my X5 Back Tomorrow

I am getting my X5 back tomorrow after it re spray after getting keyed. Which is great because the loan car, is driving me crazy !! The other good news the car is getting a full swissol treatment too before I pick her up. The bad news is by the time I get it home will be filthy as we have snow predicted for tomorrow night.The funny thing is you guys in the States and Canada are used to snow. If we get more than a dusting the country comes to a stand still.Maybe I will have to get some snow tyres for the day LOL Or will have to see how the 19's are in the snow. I will try and get some pictures before it get covered in salt and road slim.

I will be able to try out my Aux heating now it is cold enough too has it installed in the summer and never tried it yet!

Well, depends where in the USA. Here in Raleigh (NC) if we get 1 inches of snow the world stops.

Very true. I have to say that I love watching the morning news bulletin and seeing the reporters standing at the side of the M1 or the M25 with frankly nothing worse than a hard frost on the roads and it's a scene of complete gridlock.

Meanwhile in the Scottish highlands, after 6 feet of snow, life simply goes on. 'Cos it has to.

Thanks for the nice comments guys And really the picture does not show the depth of the shine can see the metalic bits in the paint so well.

yes they are 132's on 19's rims came standard with car nearly got 20's this month but ran out of cash. However did get a titainium grill and I am not really sure now it is on there. what you guys think? If the weather hold out tomorrow will try and take some pictures in the light
