Is that a prison in the back ground of last pic.

Looks ok.

Front grill is too big and needs to be either all titanium or all black

What size are the wheels, look a but small

No a hospital, actually no titanium on grill black centre with chrome surround, 20" wheels, take it your not an f15 fan then?

I just think grill should be one colour or other, there are too many colours going on!

Wheels are nice design but just look small

To be fair I think they look better in flesh than your pics do it justice.

I drove one before official launch and it was much improve on old car.

Improved in what way though? I have found my (later) E70 to be very, very comfortable and fast whereby the 8 speed box helps of course. Did you ever drive one of the LCI models?

Don't worry about 535boy, he's moved to Audi and now takes great delight in knocking the X. That said is honest and sometimes cutting remarks keep our feet on the ground.  ;)

Congrats on the new car.

I guess 535dboy is familiar with the prisons then as I would have no idea what they look like  :))

I just thought it looked like the one that your garden backed on to!

Anyway, got to dash, lunch with a female lawyer.

Congrats! It looks great.

I'm a fan of the E70 too, but I always thought that the white E70 looked a bit like a dogs dinner - as if some wide-boy had added a home made spoiler kit and sprayed it to match the rest.
By contrast your F15 looks good in white - a bit more understated or "grown up" than its predecessor.

Of course beauty is in the eye of the beholder so no doubt I've offended a load of white E70 owners....
