There seems to be quite a lot of caravanners on here these days.

Here is my outfit

I was parked in the motorway services the other day and my car and caravan was as long as the artic next to it.
I think our van is about as big as they get on a single axle but I dont get any stability problems unlike when I was towing with my 330i
I cant have anything bigger as it wont fit in my front garden.

Hi and congratulations on finding a nice x5 and a good x forum too.

[535dboy]

Welcome

X5 looks nice, great colour and nice wheels!

Not sure about the thing behind it though!!!

car looks lovely! i remeber when i had the 40d on loan, when i got back into the E53 after dropping it off it felt like a tank, these new X's are lovely to drive! love the wheels too

1. That's coz the 'X's' are such good 'tugs' - when we looked recently and the man asked what I would be towing with and I told him, he said you can tow anything we have - and they do everything (except traveller wagons). No idea how the X6 would do as a tractor (no advice pvr!!), but it's only an E70 with a tarty top and has all the same electronics with just a more clever back axle/slipping diff thingy.
2. Piccie upload is perfect.
3. My front garden isn't that big!!

The nice thing about the X is that it is still a capable road car when not towing ( unlike disco's and rovers!)
The only plus point the Land Rover sales man could find was that their vehicle was better off road. Sorry but 99.999% of my driving is road based apart from siting the caravan in someone's field. What badge would I rather have on th bonnet, BMW or Land rover hmmm let me think!

Exactly, couldn't have put it better myself.
Welcome along. That sure is a good size wheely box you have on the back. I love the colour of the X and those wheels really look good.

Just need a few more numbers to come up (6 would be good) then I can get me one of them E70's too.

For the first time EVER, I got 4 numbers! That's half a tank!

Good luck spending that, no (or little) fuel around here.

Serious!?! Went to fill up, in straight away, one or two behind me but nothing major. Out in 5-10 mins...

Sorry for off topic.

Took me three stations to find some whilst on the road at lunchtime

Station by my office had Qs all pm and when I drove past just now, many pumps empty and the esso is also closed
