Greetings from Norfolk

Hello forum members

Brand new registration, first time X5 owner but very familiar with the sights, sounds, and smells of the BMW marquee, owned several 3 and 5 series. Just acquired a 2013 X5 Xdrive50i and already had to be brought inside the house with threats of bodily harm from the wife.
Amazing vehicle! Look forward to learning all the required preventative maintenance, etc. as I do all my work on my cars. Already ordering stuff for it, I will post pics as progress continues.

"...threats of bodily harm from the wife"? That should be expected sooner or later, especially with potential shifted attention You might wanna bribe her a little by letting her have a spin in it every now and then. That's working well for me. Anyway, welcome on board. Metallic navy used to be my thing...until I got seduced by titan silver. Nice machine, bud. Enjoy.

I let her drive it all the time. I bought her a Tahoe 3 days before I bought this, I told her to choose wisely.

Anyway, the mod bug bit me and I couldn't leave well alone.

Welcome to the forum! I haven't been a member long myself but have already spent hours upon hours on here getting an education from more senior members. Tons of good information on here and the other members can help you figure out any problem/question you may have. Beautiful X by the way!

Been learning lots. Former BMW enthusiast, so is all slowly coming back to me, like how much I hate wheel bolts...but still enjoying the X5. Can't believe I didn't buy one sooner.
