He's fallen in love!
Not doubt he will be with her over night staring into those lovely hallow eyes :blink:

Very nice motor!
Even I have to say that the CB suits the aggressive M50d finish.
The only issue now is that you will be OSD washing her every week - my wife thinks I spend more time with the car than with her ::)
Good luck and many happy miles of driving.

P.S. which dealer did you use?

Thanks mate, I’m delighted with how it looks, and drives for that matter!  :) 

I got it from Peter Vardy BMW in Edinburgh.  They were excellent.

That looks great! I’d love the carbon bits on mine, but I’ve got the towbar unfortunately.

You need a bigger drive now! :))

Thanks. Yeah, I love the carbon bits too. And you’re right about the drive, it was tight with the SQ5 but it’s far too tight now with this beast. Maybe i’ll Get the missis to park her car on the street! :D

Thanks folks. I can’t believe I got the one sunny day of the year in Scotland to collect it!  It’s filthy now after some cruising today, so first clean req tomorrow.

It’s not the best time of year for a new car, that’s for sure! What colour interior did you go for?

Haha, no definitely not! I went for the Black Dakota interior. I adore the white, but I felt that it would need work to keep it looking great. With wearing jeans a lot, lugging stuff around, Mountain biking and the dog, I reckoned on too much upkeep.  I love the black actually and much less upkeep!

I went for the white leather this time, as it looks fantastic, but the upkeep is a bit of a pain. Until I get the car fully detailed in March, I’m sitting on a tea towel if I wear Jeans! :))
