Bmw X5

Ordered one of these on Saturday.

Its the new BMW X5. I've gone for the 4.8iSE. I've got the old shape 3 litre diesel at the moment but after test driving this beast I'm going to have to sacrifice the economy of diesel with the performance of petrol - 0-62mph in 6.5 seconds!!! Can't wait to pick it up. Just thought I'd share my good news. Anyone else on here got one of the top-end 4x4s?

Blimey - you're doing something right. Can't see myself ever being able to afford such a toy!!

 

You are in tree work right?

I've got a Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7 V8

Never let me down (Yet !)

Bet that's pretty quick off the mark. I had a look at the new range of Jeeps - I must admit I do like the Grand Cherokee, but one or two of the smaller ones look a bit to boxy for my liking.

Nice truck, but I don't think the kids would appreciate being put in the back of that! - perhaps when they're a bit bigger though:dancing:

i gave 3 ladies a lift to town in the front of it 1 night. it was very tight and gear changing was fun :wave:

Nice for the smooth stuff, but i'd prefer mine if it got a bit muddy. I only use it for towing the chipper, a bit under powered for hauling firewood.
