Congrats!! Great looking vehicle!

Our Space Grey X5 "had", what I thought at the time, was bad orange peel. Maybe it's because of the color of yours that makes it more obvious in the reflections. I've compounded our entire car with Menzerna FG 400, to help knock down the orange peel. Then hit it with Menzerna SF 4500. It made a huge difference.

Your car was delivered with 40 KM, is that correct?!? (In another picture the odometer is reading 1112 KM?? What's going on there? Different vehicle, I assume.) That's almost 25 miles! Ours was delivered with 7 miles. What were some of the mileages or Km on the odometer, at the time of delivery, for others???

Anywhere from 4 to 12 miles seems normal for new car deliveries.
Mine was also at 7 miles when I picked up.

Interior photos of our X5

I took some photos this afternoon showing the interior. Hope you like them.

I'm very pleased with the interior colour scheme and the ambient LED light combinations really make this car a pleasure to be in at day and night.

Beautiful shots and thanks for taking the time to post them. They put your steering wheel on the wrong side of your X5 though.

Thanks and I have to blame the British colonisation for that! LOL

DAB tuner is a digital radio tuner, we have quite a few stations here but so far I find the signal is not that great.

congrats mate! looks absolutely stunning…love the combination of colour, great contrast with carbon black.

The comfort seats look so luxurious than the standard M sport. How does it drive so far?

Are you taking your car to Damian at Final Inspection for detailing?

Thanks mate. It drives very well but I have to say BMW's diesel engine is not as refined as Audi's...from an aural experience.

I have a mate locally who has been trained by Damian to do full metal jacket paint treatment so I am having clear film and that done at the same time.

I used my Canon 5D3 and 16-35mm lens for the night shots. They are just single, long exposure shots, not HDR.

Thanks mate. Yes, we're very fortunate to have 6WB, I knew I had to have it when I saw it available as an option, love how it has different displays for different driving modes.
