Hi, I have just bought an 03 X5 and I am about to take it to Scotland for a couple of weeks.

I am in Stourbridge UK.

Any news on data from the old site? Is it gone for good then?

Thanks

Apologies to hi-jack this thread... otto-mate - I have just noticed your website for AutomatedHome, I wish I had noticed this before starting on my house. I have done a few things recently and could have done with some advice, no matter now though as I did a bit of research and am happy with the results for what I need.

I'm sure in a few years when I move to somewhere nicer / bigger i'll be starting all over again and this time doing the full Automation!

Hi and welcome ,

I'm originally from Wolverhampton and had family in Kinver , so not far from you .

I've had my E53 '05 3.0d for just 6 weeks and must say I like it .
Did Lux to Devon at average 40.3mpg on the OBC , and Devon to
Wolves at ave. 38.7mpg .
Well impressed , that's better than my E39 , although to be fair around town I'm
only getting 28.8mpg!!

Cheers , Chris
