Day 1 of X5 ownership!

Post by PhilUK » Tue Sep 11, 2012 10:16 am

Hi All,

Picked up my first X5 yesterday after many hours of perusing various topics on your fab forum.

Went for a very clean 4.4i Sport, one previous lady owner, full main stealer history and a set of immaculate 214 type alloys to boot!

Let the modding begin!  8)

Welcome aboard. That does look very tidy indeed.

As for modding, Sanj has hit the nail right on the head. We'll be more than happy spend your hard earned on adding that personal touch to your X...lol.

As for the meet, it's probably the best time to get away with it tbh...lol
