E70 Gone!

Post by Black X5 » Fri Sep 06, 2013 12:01 pm

Well, after over 6 years of combined and continuous X5 ownership (2 E53's and 1 E70), I have decided to move on.

The new and very happy owner of the E70 collected it at the start of this week- still getting used to the gaping hole on the drive  :noexpression:

I have enjoyed all 3 cars, especially my E70 (the plethora of toys did help a bit of course!).

Just want to say thanks for all the advice and it was great to meet some of you guys face to face.  This is a great forum with none of the crap you get on others- aside from some friendly banter of course!  :D

What next? Well i do like the look of the latest RR sport- still not too keen on the F15; but it may start growing on me.  ;) Time will tell!

Good luck with your cars and keep on X'ing!  :)

Sorry to see you've left 'The Dark Side', but no need to be a stranger......

Except for that red wing on that last X5, it looked very good when I saw it last  :))
