Hi, thanks for the comments. It's a 15 plate 33k. Forgot the colour is pearl silver mettalic.

I love the car just not sure of the chrome exterior trims and roofrails. I think I prefer the black.

You have the same interior as mine, so great choice 8)
Now its time to enjoy the power which will always keep a smile on your face.

Very nice, and huge spec! Particularly like the extended leather on the lower dash - mine "only" has on the upper dash and doors, which I already think makes quite a difference, but only seen the extended leather on X5 Ms.

I'm with you Anth, that's what I think the car lacks. As you can tell I don't like chrome either. But small negative to have that I can put right considering the spec this car has.

I love the colour I haven't seen anything like it.

Well chuffed :)

It’s a lovely example Poolie. Nothing beats the new car honeymoon phase !

I had a friend that just had his New Mercedes completely de-chromed with the chrome being wrapped, cost was very good he said. Tbh in that colour combo it’s not too bad at all really !

Looks like a nice one, congratulations.

Personally, I think the chrome roof rails are OK, it's the chrome around the windows that's not so great. That's the combination I have on mine, and I think works pretty well.
