Welcome and enjoy your new Xbox Keithe...

I'm sure you wont miss your M3

That makes me feel a wee bit better about taking a £7k hit on my X5 in 12months/12k miles.
Mind you, it works both ways, as the i bought a 2011 X640d for £30k, which has lost more than 50% of its value in less than 3 years... :blink:

Yes...i know it was cheap because its PINK....

An oldie but still a goody.

Must be why i'm an underachiever ...

[quote="535dboy"] What a lovely looking car in such a nice colour, congrats. Particularly good news on the exhaust pipes that particularly set it off nicely. [/quote] Not sure how to take that response Mr dboy, so i'll take with my tongue firmly wedged in my cheek.  ;) Keep taking the Happ...

[quote="shadrack"]
well at least unlike the other two you admit to been a puff with a pink car.  nice car

.......real blokes drive pink you know....

[quote="Sanj"] Well done, love the car, not the colour BUT not because of the so called pink, more so this car looks good in white, black, greys and possibly the blues... Personal opinion and all that of course.  :) [/quote] I did originaly want a Alpine white one. The blackis nice, but I'...

Thanks for the 'mostly' positive comments fellas.

Snipez....I'm not bothered about it being Pink...it'll. Look just dandy, parked outside my Salon...

[quote="X5Sport"] Excellent choice, that's three 'man pink' X6's on here.  That'll annoy 535dboy and the lack of wheelbarrow handles as pvr calls them, with set him off on another round.  At least I now know what mine will look like when I finally get the OK from domestic control....  :hug...

[quote="Benstan"] [quote="Jasonx6gordon"] What a weapon  :) [/quote] I suspect 535dboy was thinking the same, but perhaps not referring to the X. Would have expected Pope to go with something cream and with a panaromic roof to stand through. [/quote] I like the way you think........

Just done a deal to part-ex my trusty X535d for this PINK baby..... http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb315/Yonkyo/Mobile%20Uploads/WBAFH02000LL70828_01_DL_200214_1_zpsqebdi3bw.jpg http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb315/Yonkyo/Mobile%20Uploads/WBAFH02000LL70828_02_DL_200214_2_zpsfdye1vvy.jpg The ...

That's right, depress us all.... :'(

......and I was quite chuffed with the £18.5k offer, as anther BMW dealer only offered me £16k part ex.... :blink:

Depreciation...
Just traded in my 09 x535d for a 2011 X640d
Paid £26k for the X5 a year ago and was offered £18.5k part ex.
So £7.5k depreciation in 12months....ouch.

I had quite a large hole in one of my rear RFT's. Local Tyre Fitter (Tyres Direct) plugged the tyre, and its been perfect now for more than 6 months.

Why throw £300 away buying a new tyre, when you can get it safely repaired for £10.
