Picking up my X6 tomorrow!

Post by Mac1206 » Thu Mar 13, 2014 3:57 am

Hello! New to the forum but have been reading through the posts for a couple of weeks now and looking at some of the pics of your cars sold me on my new purchase!
Traded in my 2012 318d Sport and collect the new car tomorrow. Genuinely like a kid at Christmas!

X6 xDrive 4.0d 2014

Went for the showroom model so has some nice options but missing a couple that I would have liked:
- dynamic package
- 20" Y alloys
- comfort seats
- 3rd rear seat
- media package
- professional navigation
- reversing assist camera and top view
- shadowline exterior trim
- sun protection glass
- lumbar support
- USB interface
- enhanced Bluetooth

Hi and welcome.

I have not seen many X6 in that silver/grey colour there are more pink ones (red) on here

Definitely looks good and with the 40d engine and 8 speed it should be quite quick and smooth to drive, enjoy it
Now: E70 X5 in Blue, 3 Minis Cooper S R53, JCW R56 & Cooper S Roadster R59 :drive:

Prev: Abarth 595C & 500C, E53 X5 4.4i, E88 135i M Sport, Audi TT Mk1 V6, 3 Smarts, 8 Vauxhalls, 4 Fords, 2 Triumphs, 1 Mini & Bikes

Should be a good drive Graeme. Looking forward to getting in it now.

I'm in Aberdeen and the most popular colours up here are black and white. Heaps of them.

Welcome.  Nice pics..

Comfort seats are the only option you need to worry about having. 

I now love sitting in traffic jams.

Congrats, nice choice of motor.  ;)  I do like grey but the wife's more into white, so fire breathing red was the compromise.  ::)

is your friend Pinnochio?? are you Gepeto? lol .  That sounds bit too cheap if honest.  Over 3 years even on a 58' plate i would imagine it would be more than £380 with no deposit down .
