Just pulled the trigger on the following :driving: for Mrs. Mogsyman:

It was a 'built car' rather than one I spec'd so choices were to some degree limited, but it ticked all the boxes.......

Space Grey 3.0D M Sport (OK not the 40D, but hey ho)
Media Package
Pano roof
Sun protection glass
7 seats
20" wheels
Boot lid operation
Auto dimming/folding mirrors
Brushed ali trim
Reversing camera with top whatsit
Heated sports seats
Loudspeaker system - BMW Business
Telephone USB audio interface
Delivery
Service inc.

The deal worked out to be circa 20% off list given the discount off the new car and the significant additional cash over book against the part-ex X3. It took two hours to close the deal and the dealer was clearly looking for a sale for this months figures. Picking it up next week and really pleased to be back in an X5 :D

No doubt I#llhave to become a regular contributor again which will please PVR, AW8 and 535dboy ;) :P

Congrats on the new wheels, great spec too. I would love an E70. Just need those lottery numbers to come up properly first though.

Hope the wait isn't too bad. :grin:

Welcome back mate, remember you were about when I first joined (the old forum).

Damn, I'd love an E70 too. Spec is great, only missing heated s/w for me. Well done, must be up a few brownie points with the misses now then!

Thanks guys :thumbsup:

I lurk and it's good to see familiar names still on the site.

Looking forward to getting in it and being back in the fold.

X5 - does that mean you have more children on the way? :rofl:

You are not that bloke with the 13 kids, are you? Lost count after you were at number 7 :poke:

I bloody hope not!

Just wanted to get back into a bigger car - if it's not our children, it's other as well so 7 seats is a must.

Did I read somewhere about a summer meet? 8-)

Yes, I went here a few times recently and it is a great place:

Very big car park as well and easy to get to. Drink outside first before having a major pig out inside ticks all the boxes :thumbsup:

Sunday?

Week night would probably be better, but I'll go with the flow.

Do I bring the 911 or X5 : :roll:
