Thanks will get some up when I get a chance to get some snaps! I was not sure about the interior prior to seeing it but once I did see it I loved it. :)

Very nice (would say that as my exterior colour is the same ) :D

I have "oyster" interior though.

Do show the pics though ...

yes would like to see interior shots

Like the wheels too, looking similar to mine but bigger which it needs

Are they run flats ? If they are I dread to think what the ride is like !

Probably the same as all the others.......bone rattling!!
I certainly notice the difference between the 19" and 20".......unless that's just coz I'm now a passenger. :(

Lego brick being fitted Friday.....you'll be safe for a few days.

Well this is my first X5 so would not be able to review, they are currently on Dunlop run flats, I find the ride very comfortable, I guess it would be since my last car was a lowered M3 on low profile tyres!

What size are they?

Quick look shows Camskill prices from £356 for 315/35/21 Dunlop SP Sport Maxx (non RFTs) to £408 for 275/30/21 same Dunlops but RFTs!!!

Don't seem to have the larger rear size??? That a mega price to have to pay! Get saving!

That'll be the one with 'spray on' tyres then. Even a passing woodlouse causes the car to bounce.

Not that you'll ever pay that. You'll be in there with your 'bargaining hat' on. :thumbsup: Should have been a car salesperson.......
