its here!! *some pics*
 

finally the new baby has arrived ..very pleased with "her"
Had a great hand over from the dealer and haven't stopped driving it since, i will upload more pics once i have washed it, i cant believe how fast the brake dust builds up !!! i will take loads of pics next weekend when i get chance, to busy driving it everywhere at the moment, did a 60 mile round trip this morning and averaged 27.5mpg, so very happy with that at this stage...

Really happy about the titanium grilles, i really think it sets the front off nicely!

Cant wait for next Saturday to get the cleaning products out! anyone else get the super guard bag with all the cleaning products inside?

Nice, congratulations. Time to get that signature of yours changed!!!

Looks very aggressive...good choice:thumbup: ....Phil

thanks guys.. sig is now changed :D

congratz

Congrats - is it going to fit in the garage (or GAR-AG)?

Great upgrade!! I had the same thought as nynd, will it fit in your garage?

lol No chance ...the x3 didnt even fit in ..well it did but you would have to climb out of the boot!

hopefully moving in july so the next house has to have a seperate garage block ... thats the main criteria....i can live without everything else!! lol

Awesome, enjoy. One question, did it come with those wheels and the titanium grills or did the dealer install them? Here in the U.S. you can only get the 214's and the titanium grill on the 4.8.

Congrats.... looks great :thumbup:

Congratz!!!

27.5mpg??? Wow! Is that normal for the diesel? How much higher do you expect it will go after break-in? For comparison I'm getting 15-18 with a still new 4.8...

Congrats on the new ride! Looks cool, and the fuel consumption is pretty good. Then again, its a diesel.

I'm so jealous of the clear headlamps on your X3! I'm sorry, but orange just doesn't work on my white + black bumpers, and I get annoyed at it pretty often (although the 325i sedan's orange reflectors piss me off more).

congrats :)

Very nice color as well :)

gah another vehicle to make me think about 214s.

27.5mpg is imperial. http://www.tdiclub.com/misc/conversions.html

Thanks Guys...cant wait to take plenty more pics of it!

The 214s are avalible as an option when you spec the dynamic pack here in the uk, the titanium grilles were dealer fit and cost me £72.85 each. The sales guy told me he fitted them the night before himself! ...lol

ill up some more pics of it at the dealer later on today once i get chance to bluetooth them to the laptop.

I know a few people have talked about this before but does anyone know why my IPOD touch will not work with the USB audio Interface..my nano 8gb works a treat... i know its the 6th gen but i was told that BMW had sorted this? anyone else having this problem or currently using their TOUCH or IPHONE?

got any pics of the orange lenses .. cant imagine it with them :O!

congrats whoopy-do nice ride :thumbup:
are you planning on installing the aero kit ?
the underside protection bar also looks nice.

Our X5 works great with the ipod touch through the aux in, but does not work with the iphone ????
spoke to dealer about it & they are looking into it for me.

Was thinking about the aero kit ...but i have recently seen the underside protection barts frount and back coloured in the same finish as the titanium grilles and it really did look good! ill try and find a pic of it..

My touch works with the AUX in but not the USB interface ? i heard that there was a software update to the x so the it would work with 6th gen ipods?? are u usning it through the USB or AUX in?

....I am just nipping out now to pick up a DD for the other half, an 08 zafira cdti, bit of an anti climax after the hand over of the X on the weekend!! i know that sounds bad but i really cant be bothered!! ..lol:rofl:

Enjoy, looks great, is the SD super quick and different sounding to the D?

I have the aero kit & front bar on my X, I am really pleased with the look.

I use the Aux port as I don't have the USB option.

congrats!

ps. great angle of the x ;)

thanks guys, im hoping to get some night shots of it tonight if i can find my tripod, going to test my new sony dsc T200 see how she goes ! ;)

seriees do you have any pics of it?

here you go http://www.xoutpost.com/x5-e70-forum/...ht=jumped+ship

wow sirees! now thats what im talking about, you must spin a few head with that! i have also seen it with the center part of the rear aero kit pained titanuim too!

Really nice.. congrats & enjoy ! :thumbup:
