X5 40d ordered-long wait ahead!
Re: X5 40d ordered-long wait ahead!
@Nat - all very good points raise on the 'SE' over MSport spec. TBH I prefer the exterior look of the 'SE' the mono colour MSport looks too heavy.
Beige interior is nice but a pain to keep clean and rubber over mats are a must at this time of year with kids ::)
My interior before the little darlings got to work :'( works really well with the Pano roof.

cracking spec - I got a fraction over 20% off my X5 last Summer and I think one or two others have too. Got to be the yardstick from now on. Pan roof is the one option I would choose time and time again - love the look (externally) of the X5 with the twin roofs in tilt and with the roof fully open, it's the closest thing to having a convertible X!

Re: X5 40d ordered-long wait ahead!
ref the colour, my current car is Sapphire Black Metallic with red leather and I love it! It did take a bit of convincing to try cinamon for the X5, but you only live once!
I currently have the voice control and I do use it quite often, I find I can get addresses accepted ok-if it can understand my accent.....plus it was actually part of an overal deal,

Always a nice combo, shame they don't do this on the X5 not sure if they still do Chateau leather on the X6, this also looked very nice.
Bet you can't wait for the new car :drive:

Re: X5 40d ordered-long wait ahead!
Great interior Chompers. Ive had beige before and its not as hard to keep clean as people expect................just a wipe with a damp chamois tends to do the trick, & yes overmats are a must. I had 2 sets of mats that I rotated.
As for the Pan roof, again I hear what everyone else is saying, but I recon Ive used the roof 6 times and one of those times the roof broke and just the roof was £2500 and a load of agro . Maybe its a case of once bitten and all that, but the weather in this country is shite , I dont trust it and dont want the repeat experience and we just dont use it.
I will spend some of the money saved there on a re-map instead.
Regards
Nat.

Dark jeans seem to be a real pain transferring die on to the seats, but at the end of the day these are all small issues to get the overal look. (dark out/light in) I Hear where you are coming from re: the roof and guess as you say a £2.5k bill would get me thinking

Re -invalidating the warranty. I didn't think dealers could detect re-map.
Am I mistaken ?
