Thanks and yes, HoHoHo on PH. It was my Christmas ame change some years ago and I can't be arsed to change it back!

Can usually be found letching at the images on the grid girls thread ;)

The test drive in the E70 really made me appreciate how far these cars have improved. I know the 40d is probably my weapon of choice but I started looking at used an the offer made on the 30d was too good turn down. I'm sure it'll be fine and if need be I can always DMS it.

It is indeed quite a change.

Also, it is a LOT bigger!

The secret compartment under the boot floor is great with a nice touch of the hydraulic openers on them. Can get rid of a whole load of goodies in there.

.............It would be a novelty if more than 2 of us brought X series cars to next meet. That said I haven't seen either yet despite our phone chat ages ago that we should sometime meet up so I could see the 911.

X3 was plenty reason enough to contribute more regularly as this site welcomes owners of all BMW X models.

Pains me to say it but I'm glad you may be back in the fold a bit more........so to speak ;)

Curious to know numbers on the X3 trade in albeit all relative to other maths and negotiations. I bet the salesman had to work for the deal too :)

They certainly did work hard!

I never felt able to contribute with an X3, but now I'm back with a 5 I feel right back at home.

I'll pm you the details of the part-ex?

No, he bought the 5-seater. With 7 seats you lose the storage area. The X6 has the same deal as there is no spare wheel.. :thumbsup:

You will like it when you plug in your iPhone, that the album artwork will appear on the screen. Nice touch I think.

Ashame that AW8 will never know what we are talking about as he has only just moved on from his Nokia 6310 ... :poke:
