Hello everyone...........

[MarkW]

It's my first time on this forum, second X5. This one is an 05 3.0 Diesel Sport. Last one was the same on a 51 plate. I can't believe how much better this one seems to drive. Quick car, may have had a remap.
Got a few niggles, one was the sunroof. Have sorted that and will be looking for some advice on others.  Folding mirrors seem to be a problem and sometimes no Sat Nav available even though satellites have been picked up. Have noticed you all seem to like pictures and hoping they come up with this post. If not, she is a beauty in my eyes and will try to get her on here.
Nice to meet you all.

Welcome. Nice car.

Welcome! New here myself but I've found it to be a really friendly and welcoming forum - so easy to get settled.

Congrats on your car!

Welcome....

Very tidy looking example too....

The later versions come with a 218bhp motor, add the 6-speed box and they're a lot more lively than the pre-Facelifted ones.... :drive:

Make sure your third one is a 40d, then you'll really discover 'lively'...

I've had this one a month and absolutely love it. I would love the performance of a 40d, a bit out of my budget at the mo.
I just love the look of the face lifted E53, my favourite, probably until I can afford a later model.

Wife says I like the facelift cos I need one myself. Funny Lady !!!

I really like that sentiment.  Welcome from another newbie (although wondering how many posts I need to make before I climb the rankings)

Hi and  from me too. e53 looks good in Estoril, nice to have the Nappa leather as well.

Loads of info on here, hope you enjoy

Welcome, and seeing as you posted with pictures, you have hit the right spot straight off. 

Enjoy a lovely looking example.

Are you asking what that stands for? Is so its, She Who Must Be Obeyed.  Like most good men there's an even better woman keeping us on the straight and narrow.
