Hello soapsud
Your X5 sounds like a beauty. Make sure you post some pics...

That it is
Picking it up tomorrow as its had its MOT today (passed with no advisories which I think is a good start). Just got to pop to the DVLA in Bristol to swap my plates over before I collect it.
Will try and post pics on Sunday if the weather is good
Really can't wait to pick it up now.

Welcome and congrats on the purchase.
Another South Wester in the mad house I see.
Where is Jon when we need to sort another local meet?
Good luck with the pickup, and yes the heated wheel is great

Re: I've finally done it!
Couldn't wait and went and picked it up this afternoon >:D
It's brilliant! Haven't done much driving but I'm hitting the road tomorrow for a good run.
So far I've paired the iPhone and set the clock, date and changed a few of the setting on the Nav. I'm going to update the Nav to the 2013 version tomorrow. Had to reset the clock etc. because a new battery has gone on at the car dealer before I purchased. Got the mileage up to 16.4 mph so far. Hoping to get that up to a proper level on the run tomorrow.
The only niggly thing (which I'd already spotted on the test drives) is the mileage display back light looks to have failed. Hoping Ill be able to get some assistance from others on here how this can be fixed.
Photos Sunday...promise!
