New to me 3.0d se
Hi all.
Sorry, not my first post!
This is my first e70 (had 4 e53's) and love it so far. Bit disappointed with fuel consumption :blink: but ordered a chip box which in my experience improves things a bit (I know that will upset you remappers!) ill report back when it's fitted

Good to see you giving your fellow X5ers a bad name by bumping it up the kerb!
I did that once in a loan V8 cayenne. The pedestrian actually spat at it!!!

Ha ) the previous owner bumped it up the kerb, it's one of the auto trader pics. I took the one where it looks like I crashed it :blink:
Spitting at my car would be quickly followed by a couple of teeth I think O:-)

I remember parking my old estoril blue Clubsport while my wife and I met up with some friends and coming back to find someone had spat all over the drivers door.
I always thought estoril was nice too ::)

Re: New to me 3.0d se
Estoril is probably my all time favourite colour! Land rover copied it with Monte Carlo blue but discontinued it in 2004 - obviously not everyone's bag...

Love Estoril Blue have had both M3 and M5 in this colour!!
Re: New to me 3.0d se
Welcome along.
Nice colour and I do like those wheels. I'm sure after you have finished pampering it, it will look even better
