The car looks the dogs, although my personal choice would be to lose the paragraph on the boot.

Love the X6 & M3 lovely combo to have  8)

Is it a M performance exhaust on the M3? it looks different to the standard exhaust I had on mine, they are crying out for a different exhaust I think as the standard set up on mine was lousy in the noise department...the induction noise was good though!

yes this does make me laugh, I am tempted to remove some of it, make it even more of a sleeper on the road..

Just added some LED WeissLicht  from Bimmian, I had the daytime running lights turned off so not to show the nasty pee rings.. ::)

Now much much better, exact match to the Xeon lamps.

Here you go, they are the white light kit, think they came in at 95 quid... hard to photo but they are excellent, very pleased.

The X6 50d must be amazing to drive as I know others have the 40d and say how smooth and quick those are. 

Congrats on the car very nice. I did drive my brother in laws 35d and I thought that was great so I canon,y imagine what your 50d is like  :punk:

Sanj as you said a pipe dream for a lot, but give it a few years and they become more achievable definitely in my dream 10 car garage as it's practical and quick

spacers look well on the M3 mate :)

X6 is a much better choice that the RR ... well done that man! Defender looks spot on!

Cheers mate,

Our dodgy carpark deal went unnoticed!

The X6 was a very quick decision for us, but I think that is because she liked it so much and I was just smiling becasue of the badge... I think we could have ended up ordering a GL from our guy in merc the way it was heading which could have been a very big (literally) regret...
