Hi Guys another proud X5 owner!!

Post by 4.8isDriver » Wed Mar 30, 2011 10:03 pm

Hi guys as the title says i am now the very proud owner of a 2004 4.8is X5 in Le Mans Blue with Black nappa leather and silver trim, seems to have all the usual toys inc Panoramic, Sat-nav, Bluetooth etc with just over 65k on the clock, based on all of the excellent feedback on here i think ill be paying Jason a visit shortly for a service and probably a re-map ;)
ill take some pics once i have cleaned her up a bit and had a valet so shes looking her best! But for now just wanted to drop in and say hi, i suspect this will be a big education! as its full of knowledge seems like good fun and banter on here so hopefully ill enjoy my ownership of the new beast as much of the rest of you!

Thanks
Tom
