My New X5

Finally received vehicle On Friday about 3.30pm just in time for journey to Paris via Euro Tunnel 580 miles round trip later :yeah:

Don't have to much to report other than cars pulls a lot more than I remember on test drive, gears really smooth in fact most times untociable. Interior build quality is just top notch, leather seems slightly lighter than swatch but overall really happy. The i drive is hardwork at the moment but having the usb makes things really easy with iphone for music and bluetooth for phone which all worked perfectly but I must be missing something with the navigation what happened to postcodes? really was unhappy with that. Not sure on the wheels at the moment really liked them at first but we will see anyway view for yourself - sorry vehicle in condition after Paris trip.

Very nice and congrats :thumbsup: Looking at the pics the extra seats don't seem to eat up the boot space either which is good :thumbsup:

You can do postcode search. Just add the postcode you require in the city/town field of the nav :thumbsup:
