Random X5 shot of the day... Add yours - let's make this an ongoing thread!

X5M50D · 04-29-2018, 11:52 AM

For a 2L petrol car drove fine however torque no way near as good as the X5. Enjoyed the roof down even though the weather was no so great.
No match to the SUV!
Yes I was quietly surprised with what my dealer offered me for the two days as I was expecting a bog standard 1 series

Would be nice to drive this, even if it's RHD!

Sometimes driving a car is just easier and more fun than the bigger X5. When I get a chance I take my sister in laws mini around and drive it like I stole it

Funny you mention that. We have a 3-series GT and I always grab the keys to that.

Let's get some proper plates on that X6 already, you've had it for a while now!

menelaos · 04-30-2018, 10:56 AM

At recycling site at dawn...

CatalinP · 04-30-2018, 11:03 AM

Very foggy.

ramy_who · 04-30-2018, 11:09 AM

Picked up the X6 over the weekend. Never thought I'd be into SUV's but let me tell you... this thing completely changed my mind! I'm in love.

I guess I'm a truck guy now. When I go from my x6 to a car and vice versa I prefer the driving position of my x6.

If a dealer around here had that color I would've bought it Soo fast

New toy.

mpowered5 · 04-30-2018, 06:12 PM

Finally some sun in southern Ontario. I Really need to find the time to ditch those orange reflectors though..

P1 · 04-30-2018, 08:19 PM

Little cheeky F15 humor when checking to see how much they're still worth...

There's no such thing as Transmission LIFETIME OIL! Got around changing the transmission fluid and oil/filter pan on my 35d, took 3 hrs and it includes getting bathe in trans fluid.

4 years and 68k miles, no towing, lots of highway driving, Transmission fluid was getting pretty dark and thicker compared to original, and no metal flakes and surprisingly slight material accumulations on the magnets. It shifts smooth as butter and precise.

I tinted the reflectors on my alpine white 228. It looked nice... everything was either white or black. But one day i was power washing it and the black wrap on the reflectors came off. I never looked back. The orange adds nice contrast and looks cleaner than black wrap IMO. Body coloured wrap would probably look cleaner than reflectors though.

Thanks. LOL. I have no idea what that is. My neighbor is a car hoarder with cars parked from the street all the way to the back of the property.
