Newbie, very pleased to be here!

Post by X6_40d_Nick » Thu Apr 19, 2012 10:03 pm

Quick hello, from a newbie!

Got myself an xdrive 40d on a 10 plate with only 7000miles!!!!

And I love it, even smiled at the £118 diesel bill! Although guess that will get less funny as time passes!

I joined to ask questions on towbars, but save the boring stuff for another day....

Anyway Hi to all.

And a quick hello back atcha Nick........ :thumbsup:

Westfalia are the standard fitted units used by BMW but you can get the kits 'after market'. Don't know anyone that's done it though on an X6. Had mine added at build as it's a lot cheaper - unless you are going to do it yourself of course.. :D

Oh and.... :worthless:

And this is how you attach them when you do your into in the Newbies Section...... :poke: :D
