Can't believe I've missed this thread, superb looking car, love the underground/multi storey car park shots, been wanting to get some like that for ages but don't live near any :( she'd get too dirty driving to one :D

The car is with a dealership tonight, they have fitted oval exhausts ala 4.8 optik and fitted/coded LCI rear lights. I've been informed the rear of the car now looks much better. Photos to follow soon. Admittedly I'm excited but nervous too about the new look.

I did the exhausts

How much are the lights out of interest, not that I plan on doing

Would have rather had the chance to change front ones to led

535d boy ... I remembered you having the exhaust tips changed, in fact I recall you've had them done a long while back. It encouraged me to investigate further. The lights were circa £500!

Now for some updates...

Looks good

That isnt too bad on price. I had to change one unit because the LEDs had gone so know the price !

See you have come off the run flats too

I bid farewell to the E70 this morning having dropped it off to its temporary new home until it finds a new owner.

I didn't want to hold onto it anymore as I have decided not to hold on for the new X5 expected next year (M Sport probably Q3 2014). It was a perfectly good car  :ok:
