Newbie from Scotland

Post by Legend » Fri May 09, 2014 2:25 am

Hello,

My father has owned the X5 since 2008 and has never thought about signing up to a forum so I thought I should. Better late than never! We've got a 2005 '55' X5 in Carbon Black. With it being the exclusive edition, it has a few goodies such as lemon cream nappa leather and a panoramic sunroof. No modifications have ever been carried out on the car apart from painting the grill in a silver colour. It's got 32,000 miles on the clock and is the 3.0D Sport Auto variant. Nothing much else to say I think.

Thanks again.

Welcome!

Car sounds great - got any photos?

I'd be interested to see what the Lemon Cream looks like.

Reading around on the forum now, I don't know if it even called lemon cream haha. It's definitely leaning towards the lighter end of cream though but somewhat yellowish too, hm. I'll get pictures when I can!

There is a purple mark in each picture, this is my camera which is messed up! The car is immaculate.  :))
