I love how much Hexagon think they can charge for cars!

The interior is disgusting and the exterior colour doesn't suit the X5 in my opinion...

They also advertise it as having alot of additional extras... the only extra on there is the Pano Roof, the rest are all standard with the 4.8is.

Grey & Cinnamon. Ummm. Different and not my cup of tea either. The Stratus Grey I could live with as I have a Sterling Silver one, but not with that interior, or for that price!! It may be low mileage but.........

I like it - just not the light wood finish.

Don't like the price though, dreamers... :roll:

I actually like the interior of this one. Allways looks better from an exterior point of view under those glaring warehouse lights. 4-5£k over buget in my opinion for a 06 reg.

Exterior very boring, not smitten by the interior either, but then someone specced it to their personal tastes! I bought my 4.8 from Hexagon - couldn't fault the service, probably overpriced at the time, but the spec was massive and I had hunted for months for such a high spec. I bought it just before the price of petrol really soared..... The AUC Warranty has been brilliant and Hexagon also paid for additional stuff not covered under the warranty via the Lincoln dealership, whom they paid to do the work. I would buy another car from them, they had some lovely Z4Ms and M5s when I went to collect the X and they gave a good part-ex too. I've noted that some Xes sit on their site for a very long time though.....esp the lower spec ones. Looks like this one is just a bogstandard 4.8 with no extras - the pano roof was even standard on a 4.8. Doesn't even have DSP. Not very attractive at that price!

Exterior I quite like but the interior clashes with the wood. More tan/hearing aid colour IMHO!!
