Hi moving from Z4 forum to Xdrivers

Hi all, thought I`d drop in and say hello. I just put a deposit down on a X3 3.0sd m-sport which I cant wait to get my hands. Unfortunately I cant justify keeping my Z4 Coupe so thats getting traded in.

The X3 is a 57 plate with 63k on the clock, FDSH, quite a few toys - heated leather seats, media pack etc.

I think I managed to do a pretty good deal on it ( :blink:)

Looking forward to being involved in the forum.

Cheers

Andy

Pvr - I dont see that as a bad thing :) Better the devil you know!

Thanks for the welcome everyone, the Z4 will be sadly missed but I needed a bit more of an all rounder and the X3 certainly seems to tick the box's...and it will definitly be faster than the Z4 in the snow! Heres a pic or two...

She is indeed a good looking girl.  It may be hard to say goodbye but with the X3 and your engine choice you've not only chosen an allround but a damed fast one!

So do you have to change all the flower pots outside your house to match the colour of your new car?  :))

Welcome

Nice to see you avoided the hair dresser version that PVR has, even if he claims that his has four exhausts.

More powerful hair dryers more likely.

Single sided exhausts gives you a lob sided hairstyle. :P

Thanks again for the welcome everyone.

I have always joked the Z4 comes in his (coupe) n hers (roadsters) varieties but I guess now I could be on the receiving end with the X3 v X5 :)
