Howdy
Thought it was about time I posted some pics of our new(ish) car, the 320d- little sister to the X6. Enjoying this a lot more than I thought I would, it's got the 8 speed gearbox which is cool; very fuel efficient when my better half drives it, but I have it in Sport mode when I do, so not so much for me  :)
Got all the toys, and stereo is the dogs danglies!
Please excuse the unsightly heap of rubble in our neighbour's garden! Hopefully these will come out the right way up for once  :))

Thanks fellas...for you Sanj, I will take some more tomorrow  :camera:
Wasn't sure about the front end at first but it has grown on me.
Thinking to get it remapped shortly which I think gives it about 20+hp on top.
The exhaust is a bit puny!

Agree on all counts, front needs getting used to (that's the bit I'm trying to like).

Remap-wise, not affiliated with fat boy Jason but feel free to give him a shout, reckon he can get you a few more than 20. He can send maps all over the country to make it convenient for you.

And yes, exhaust is a joke - change that and sure you'd release a few horses.

Hmm ok, will look into what Jason has to offer then. In the meantime I might pop into Halfrauds and get me a nice chunky tailpipe cover! And while I'm at it, a big POWER badge for the rear  :xmasevil:

...and a bloody great magic tree thingy hanging from the mirror (please tell me none of you do that!)
Quick question...why do some cars appear to have a tail dangling from the back of them? I have always wondered. Hubs said it's something to ward of car sickness but I fail to see how that would help??!

It's to discharge any static charge build up in the car, but actually you are so distracted by the grinding and scraping noise you forget to be ill.....
