Wife's X5 M-Sport
Hello fellow enthusiasts! I Just ordered my wife a new X5 and we are very excited! We traded in her 2007 for this new beauty and cannot wait for it to get here. I was a bit selfish and configured it for myself lol. Didnt get the lighting package or many other options i wanted but the M-Sport was a must have. I drive an M3 and wanted to pimp out the mom mobile. We have a 7 moth old and she will be traveling in moms car 99% of the time. Much roomier than dads car. 4-6 weeks to get to us. Cant wait!
XDrive 35i M Sport Alpine White Terra Dakota Leather Fineline Oak wood Trim 20" M Light alloy Double Spoke wheels style 469M-with performance run-flat tires Rear view camera Space-saver spare - There any good tunes for this thing yet? Downpipes?

I've also just realised that some F15s bound for the UK seem to be getting discharged at Bremerhaven and then put on another ship for Southampton. So if thats the case, then it could be on any ship i guess!! The wait continues... |

Dealer picked up my E70 today and can't tell me when the new car will be delivered! I have a feeling its also on the 'Integrity' which is bloody great Still waiting to hear when car will be available to collect. Bizarre that neither the dealer or BMW UK can track a car when even HM Post office can do this with £2.00 package!! Bitter irony. |

Just been told by my dealer that my delivery date of mid-June is now first week of June It's in the paint shop apparently. Does that mean it will be on a boat in the next week or so? Haven't got the VIN yet though. Last edited by Manatee; 04-30-2014 at 11:20 AM.. |

4/30 Called the 1-800# today and they said that the car is at the "final processing center" (a.k.a. VPC) and the next step should be to "become dealer inventory". Not sure why the status jumped from "waiting for a carrier" all the way to VPC.

Added today: Enhanced Bluetooth telephone preparation with USB audio interface and Voice Control (6NS) Head-up Display (610) Hope these addition don't delay build though my dealer assures me that since my order is STILL at status 1100 it shouldn't. I chose to add the 6NS option since I didn't realise that the 'standard' Bluetooth doesn't facilitate audio streaming over Bluetooth and, having read many positive comments about the latest version of the HUD, I had to have it.

And I thought I had a long options list . . . You didn't fancy comfort access, I know it's an expensive option but I couldn't live without it having had the equivalent on my existing Lexus RX450h for the last 4 years. I went with the 40d but stopped adding options some time ago. Seemed daft not to take the 40d as it made bugger all difference to the contract hire price and why not have a few extra horses and even more torque than the 30d for the same CO2 emissions.

Hi
I have many reasons to get out of the Land Rover Brand. I took a new RRS, Cayenne and X5 on 24hr test drives, before choosing the BMW. The new RRS looks nice, but in my opinion doesn't drive as well as people are making out. It feels heavy and not as refined as the BMW. Personal taste, but the interior is not up to the standards of the BMW. The in-car electronics are very dated. The engine is not an improvement over the 61 plate RRS I have just got out of. Then there is the reliability, build quality. To top that of you get a really poor after sales service, I have used many dealers in and around my area and find them all to be lacking in customer services. Finally , I believe that the new RRS is more of a must have car to be seen in at the moment. The X5 is by far a better drive, better tech, better engine and I think that it is a really great looking car. Phew!!!! Got that out of my system. Please note that above is my opinion only!! |
