My New X6
Was going to avoid having a separate thread for this and just post in the random shot of the day thread, but noticed it was for X5s ? so can we post X6's in there also ?
Anyway, very pleasant experience, picked up the brand new car today (Build completed 11th Jan 2017), so far very pleased with it, as its my first "large" car will take a bit of getting used to coming from the 2015 F20 M135i as my previous car, but am pleased with the upgrade. Taken 1 Month roughly from build complete to being picked up, so that's very good from BMW, as have read some horror stories with wait times. Anyway.... ...thought I'd share some photos for those who would like (sorry iPhone quality) Walked in to this and then after the unveiling Showing off the M performance splitter here and lastly

Very nice... It looks like they added the M performance grill too.
I would complete the look with the gloss black X6 emblem and exhaust tips in the back and the sides are already debadged from factory I assume. And yes, please post pics of X6's in the photo of the day

Very nice! Such a magnificent machine.
I could be a bit biased though, lol. I have posted a few pics in the thread you mentioned, and never got any boo's so feel free to put up pics so we can all bask in the glory that is X6. Enjoy the new toy in good health.

Thanks for all the nice comments guys, am now finding lots of excuses to go out to the shops or run errands....
"oh forgot the milk ? I'll go get some...." "Oh darn forgot the bread, I'll go out and get some more..."

Then... well, considering the M Perf Diffuser and bootlip spoiler but we'll see.

Congratulations on taking delivery of your new car, it looks lovely in space grey! Your handover seems like it was a good experience. I have less than a couple of weeks until I take delivery of mine too. Just trying to arrange insurance at the moment which is proving to be a bit of a nightmare. Who did you insure you car with?

But I live in Greater London, not the lovely Cotswolds, which sadly makes a big difference

I went to these price comparison sites and was being quoted £1200+..... (I'm 41 with a clean licence been driving since 17, and have 16 years no claims so thats shocking)
