Tsk tsk, I dunno, you might not, but some of the rest of us might care.... :) :D :D

...and one day you might actually own one (assuming you can get the price low enough).... :poke: :D

I could do with some brighter HIDs on the X6, only I bet BMW have fitted 'just big enough' ballasts for the 35W.. :headbang:

Still many years till it's fits my budget, better make sure I get Xenons as standard next time :poke:

Joking aside it's £15 more for the ones they gurantee for e70 that's not bad.

Bulbs or ballasts?

And all joking aside, I want an X6 M50d (not that I need one of course) but that will have to be a second hand one as HRH is never going to clear that kind of expenditure.. :?
