Introducing Xena

I finally picked up Xena (the 3rd) on Friday.

Initial impressions, like it a lot! Ride is a big improvement over E53, much smoother and surefooted. Idrive is ok, found it relatively simple to make it work - don't know what the fuss is all about. Gear shifter is pretty simple too.

I've got the third row seats and I think that they are pretty much as advertised. I am 5ft 6in, and I found it relatively comfortable as long as the backrests on the second row are upright. I will only use them occasionally but they suit my requirements.

Spec is Space Gray 3.0si with Black Nevada leather (std seats) and Bamboo trim. Sports suspension, media package, 12 speaker stereo, 3rd row, heated seats and heated steering wheel.

Overall v.happy.
