Just got myself an X5

Really nice spec..... As far as i can gather adaptive drive really does help the ride with the 20"s just watch out for cracked alloys as you can hit speed bumps and pot holes harder than you think. ( had 1 cracked 1 in a year so far)

Adaptive headlights are great fun the first time you go down a dark lane with main beam on.......the 2 beams of light wiggling all over the road 

Keep an eye on the panoramic roof as these can be problamatic......ive got into the habit when cleaning the car to just rub a little silicon grease around the outside of the roof panels as this seems to clean off any dirt and stops it sticking as it goes back down.

Have the head up display on mine and its often a good reminder of exactly how fast your going  O:-)

Hope you enjoy it and good luck keeping the running boards sparkling

Thanks Squeaky

Yep suprisingly I don't find the ride bad on 20's and run flats. It may have something to do with what I am use to and luckily out of habit I slow right down for speed bumps...i have read some stories on cracked alloys so will keep an eye out for it.

I am actually dreading washing the car due to the sheer size of it but thanks for the heads up on the panoramic roof...although I've not actually opened it yet I do like the way it lets so much more light into the car...

Running boards...they weren't cleaned that good by the dealer so I still need to get round to giving these a good clean...once the weather improves  ::)
