Afternoon everyone

Post by sean2204 » Mon Apr 21, 2014 3:48 pm

New X5 owner here, just thought I'd say hi!

I've just bought an 11 plate 4.0d x5. Seems to have almost everything spec wise but already planning a few subtle modifications (remap, smoked rear lenses etc). Will try to post some pics!

Will try contribute on here as much as I can.

:hi: See it has different alloys for starters. They don't look OEM, not that that's a bad thing! Factory tints?

Yea they are 22" Revere wheels. I've still got the factory wheels, which are now gloss black and for winter use. I've had the tints done, although it did have the rears factory - I just wanted them a little darker!  ;)

Some of the spec off the top of my head is :
4.0d 2011, 29k miles
22" Revere wheels
Full tints
Rear cameras
Side cameras
DAB
Factory rear entertainment
Front TV
Individual audio
Soft close doors
Comfort access
Comfort start
Panoramic sunroof
Head up display
Deep blue interior with white piping
4 way climate control
Front and rear heated seats
TV in motion
BMW online
Professional Sat Nav

I'm sure I've missed loads! Next is the rear lights getting tinted and a remap for extra bhp and mpg!

Jason can sort you out with the map, you won't be disappointed (if that's who you go for). The wheels are not my taste but not my car. Bet they're a bitch to clean! Tints, be careful, could get pulled.

Spec is GOOD! Pano roof, 7 seats and heated steering wheel only things missing.

It's got the pan roof and heated steering wheel. Hasn't got 7 seats mind!

The wheels are a grower I think. They look better in the flesh.

Welcome aboard.

Very nice and congrats on the purchase. I really like the rims but get yourself some Bilberry wheel cleaner to make it a little easier to clean em.
