[Wondermike]

Been meaning to put these up for a while, the facelifted X5. The 40d sounds like the perfect winter beater

8 speed auto too

I noticed in the paper I was reading this morning the new 5 series touring also has probably the same 8 speed auto

looks good but too big for me

Am I the only one that'd love a Z4 S-Drive 40d? 8)

X5 = Cracking bit of kit

I want one!

X5.

Yes, I must admit that the X5 is an excellent car. I have had it for 4 years now which I never normally do with a car.

Yeah it's nice isn't it. I prefer this one to the M Sport, not keen on the colour coding on that one, I prefer the black bumper trim.

I think X5 M Sport is the best looking 4x4 in the world.
