Very nice - I like the black wheels, are they 21"? My F15 is white, would love it with these wheels on but weren't an option when I ordered mine! Lovely looking motor.

I think you should keep the protective wrap on to break up the black !

Cheers  :)
They are 20'' , i only ordered last minute because they couldn't get me the 468M which were my first choice,
I think they look OK, i had my last wheels painted ferric grey , i didnt fancy a set of plain silver , i think the black wheels will look good with a few coats of polish.

Bob, what do you do offshore, I assume it's North Sea? I work as a senior drilling engineer in Aberdeen, I do the weekly commute from Edinburgh (I was "allowed" to bring the X5 this week  :)). Did you buy your motor from John Clarke in Aberdeen?

I'm a Snr elec dive technician on a DSV, in the north sea just now unfortunately, hope to get overseas again soon 8)
I got the car from Eastern, The family had used Henry Bros for years and couldn't fault them but after indifferent service from Douglas Park after the takeover I bought the E70 from Peter Vardy which i immediately regretted, i started using Eastern's workshop then my dad bought a new X3 from them and my next door neighbour a 320d , no complaints so far from anyone , really good service.
