Bollocks - missed this !
Great somebody else to take the pressure off me of trying to be the forum arse
Nice new motor - somebody else just bought himself some new shagging tokens too !
Re the meet, you bring the 997, I'll bring the Coxster and it can be an X5 meet like the old days !

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..

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 ...
