X5 Mk 3 release date?

[Mavster]

Hello all,

Does anyone know when the Mk 3 X5 will be released in the UK? In particular I am interested in when the 35d Msport variant will be available. I have seen that this model will only be available in 2014 at the earliest.. 

Thanks in advance

Is there going to be a 35d?  They were replaced by the 40d in 2010 on the current ranges.  Still the same 3.0d engine but with better performance, economy and emissions.

Yeah you are right.

What ever it is called, does anyone know when the 3.0 TT D  will be available in the UK please?

Production for the EU starts in December 2013 according to the web.  First deliveries would be Jan/Feb 2014 at a guess as it takes around 5-6 weeks to get them from South Carolina to the UK.  Depends when the first UK production starts.
