Re: Leaving soon...

Congrats on the new RRS and its worth trying a different one especially if a better deal.

You can always stay on the forum as its always good to have an owners view on other models especially a close option for the X5

Re: New to me collection day !

Congrats on you new X5, and they do drive well.

I think the wheels as diamond cut will need looking after and once clean applying a good wheel sealant will help.

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Re: Just saying hi

Hi ad welcome

Hope you enjoy the forum.

Yes the X5 is probably a bi softer than the Aud, and part may be down to age and mileage but also it's probably got air suspension on the rear as well.
