If you are prepared to pay for the driving dynamic options that all of the road tests seem to imply you do to make it half decent

I have a F10 530d in the next couple of weeks when mine has some new tyres and brakes fitted so my verdict is well and truely out at the minute

Buy an Audi S6/A6 quattro avant then !

View from my office in the December snow - ie the one that was less bad !

I was the only car in the office to get it but I'm sure I could have got the TT in too

Oh and I pretty much got the X5 stuck in the flat car park in the Wok In Nutley - that was how good a 4x4 it was !

Tyres, it is all in the tyres

Absolutely even a rear wheeler with snow tyres on could probably do better than an X5 with 20" Sport tyres on !

I dont think the diameter is the problem its the god dam width 10/ 11J is not very helpful in the snow, hey what we worried about as if it snows every day.

The FWD audi was c*@p in the snow because of the 8J rims,

The rear wheel vito did me proud, with a few power slides on the way

This is another way of topic thread as per the norm so sorry to Minda but the more I read 535dboys thoughts on changing his e70, the more I think that a late reg e61 big spec 535d MSport remapped like you know who's is the way to go. Save a shed load of cash, buy a set of winter tyres, job done.



Speaking of you know who, where is the miserable old git

With your mrs, according to him.

No, not 535dboy, it is Mogsyman we are talking about.

Hello my name is James and I'm an addict

I'm almost in my mid 30s

We live in a nice village with the Mrs' 2 kids and the dog.

We have 6 houses (1 in the US) and 6 cars (1 in the US and the two kid's)

I am a professional (PVR will confirm shortly) and in my spare time I do a lot of track days (see these posts viewtopic.php?f=16&t=44 , viewtopic.php?f=16&t=45 and viewtopic.php?f=16&t=47 in the orange rocket (as Chompers likes to call it). When I'm not on track I am having an affair with PVR's Mrs.

I have also been know to go out and go go karting with PVR, AW8 (well done for getting this done chaps), Chompers and another top character from X5drivers called Mogsyman (who is so un-PC it is fantastic but probably doesn't know the old site died. He saw sense and changed his X5 for a 535d)

Not what he said. lol

Sorry, wrong end of the stick
