Hi, thanks for the comments. It's a 15 plate 33k. Forgot the colour is pearl silver mettalic.

I love the car just not sure of the chrome exterior trims and roofrails. I think I prefer the black.

Welcome to the M50d club!
Congratulations on the new car and hope you will have many happy motoring miles.
You have the same interior as mine, so great choice 8)
Now its time to enjoy the power which will always keep a smile on your face.

Very nice, and huge spec! Particularly like the extended leather on the lower dash - mine "only" has on the upper dash and doors, which I already think makes quite a difference, but only seen the extended leather on X5 Ms.

I'm with you Anth, that's what I think the car lacks. As you can tell I don't like chrome either. But small negative to have that I can put right considering the spec this car has.

I love the colour I haven't seen anything like it.

Well chuffed :)

It’s a lovely example Poolie. Nothing beats the new car honeymoon phase !

I had a friend that just had his New Mercedes completely de-chromed with the chrome being wrapped, cost was very good he said. Tbh in that colour combo it’s not too bad at all really !

Looks like a nice one, congratulations.

Personally, I think the chrome roof rails are OK, it's the chrome around the windows that's not so great. That's the combination I have on mine, and I think works pretty well.
