Hi folks, just signed up after buying my first bmw..... had to make it a good one though ;)
Picking up a 2001 x5 4.4 sport on friday so chances are i'll be asking every daft question going :)
I bought it after chopping my shogun for a merc estate, what a mistake that was. How anyone can drive round with their arse dragging on the floor is beyond me. Ill post a pic later on when i'm near a computer.

Can't be, i deleted all my mini pics :))

I have had my first rollocking off the wife after she was on my ebay and saw a winch kit i had been looking at. Apparently this car is going to be a shiny and not be modified in any way shape or form........ the winch is for a mate :noexpression:

Heres my last 4x4 that i was keeping totally standard ;)
