Was Boredddddddd ...

[X5CA]

hello

i got out of work early today , there wasn't anything today , its a boring job , instead of going home i had a quick change of plan : Since my wife was visiting the kids at school , idecided to play with the X

My old-time buddy James was with me ( We live 2 kms apart ) snapping the pics ..

Enjoy the pics

P.S. It handled pretty good in the sand , however , it was losing traction every second !! i do understand that it is not an off-roader but oh well , it was worth a try

i will not be trying this again and please dont try this at home

please don't give me a hard time because of the crappy pics , but again , cell phone camera

[X5CA]

Very cool! Make sure to wash that sand off!

Note that the loss of traction is the performance tires. The xDrive system is very capable.

Also, wish we could just drive on the beach here!!

turn traction control off in sand and air down and it'll make a world of difference
