Hi to you all,

I'm a long time lurker to this forum but a first time owner.
About a week ago I picked up a nice condition 2005 X5 D Sport. Black is the colour with black leather. 19" alloys ( soon to be replaced with a nice set of 22" alloys I have just got me mitts on)
It has built in sat nav etc and screens in the back and a playstation. But like a few on here I will at soom point soon get a nice touch screen head unit.

At the moment I am just enjoying driving it and trying not to leave my keys laying about as the misses disappears and so does my X5  ::)
