just got my new car yesterday

Post by mikeyh » Sun Jul 31, 2011 11:31 am

hi all from edinburgh.............
after a 400 mile round trip and trading in my 330ci coupe i picked up my x5
its a 02 4.6is sport silver
needs some tlc as the previous owner lived in afgan or iraq as every panel has some sort of dent,scratch even the roof.

also when i got home noticed the boot was covered in oil residue and looked under the car to see a nice big oil streak along the whole underside,
car has 124 miles on the clock drives lovely though so when i get it to work later ill start checking over everything.

also think ill change the headunit or at least find a usb adaptor as all my music is on mp3 format.

Just shows how camera's flatter a car - despite your war zone suspicions it looks fine via a lens.
