Newbie from Aberdeenshire!

Post by Runningman35 » Sat Jan 26, 2013 9:55 pm

Hello X Drivers,

Been lookin at joining up for a while since purchasing my E70 X30d M Sport in Dec 12. Had a while to wait while reg transfer getting done.

My 2nd BMW, but I think it's the 16th car I have owned so far. I definitely seem to keep going back to the German brands and the X is the best quality car I have ever owned for sure!

Will post up a pic when get a chance tomorrow hopefully.

Not planning on getting any mods done yet but just seeing the car clean is the first objective, which should be sometime in April by the time the weather calms down a bit! Looking forward to all your posts and my other car is a Mk5 Golf GTI for the daily commute etc.

Just as we never tire of looking at pretty women, we also never tire of looking at handsome X's (the car variety).  :P

Welcome from another Aberdeenshire loon. I hope you've found the X useful in the recent wintery conditions?  :)
