New x5 owner
Hi wanted to say hello after I purchased my first BMW Thursday it's an e53 x5 4.6is in estoril blue.
So far I've noticed a few little quirks but coming from a Jaguar XF I have to accept there totally different beasts.
Again Hello to all

No no, I do belive you are both wrong and the Blue is the fastest!
