From a 986 Boxster to a E83 X3

Evening All!  :)

New member to this forum site... I have come over from being a Boxa.net forum member.  I used to have a 986 Boxster, but as soon to become a family man (April/May next year) I thought I best get the Mrs into something a bit more family friendly!  So I've got her the below/attached X3 (hopefully for the long run) and I have to say we love it so far!

Look forward to chatting with you all over the coming days/weeks/months and hopefully years... I already have some "how to" questions, such as how to change headlight and fog light bulbs!  :))

All the best!
Dean

Hi and welcome,

Nice pics of your car and hope you enjoy the forum.

If you have any probs with the car always check the X3 section or put a post up as a lot of help and expertise available.

Also it may be worth checking the posts by Jagr as he also has a nice X3 and has a lot of knowledge on fixes and mods made  to improve them.
