Central Scotland based Newbie

Hello all.
Started the new year with a new car.
After 5 years of thinking about (and trying to justify) buying an X5, my wife is now the very happy owner of a 2005 X5 3.0d Sport. Black with black interior and a pan roof.
This is our first BMW and I have to say I very impressed so far but I'm sure I'll be asking the odd stupid question from time to time.
I found this forum while looking for information about tow bars and have since seen a number of useful posts so thought I'd stop by and say hello.
Here are some pictures taken at the dealer before we picked it up.
