Hello to you all! New car on the way...

Hi guys

I have been told to say hi from another forum as I’m getting a new to me Bmw in a few weeks - basically my silly road toy has gone to fund something else, and along with a new baby and a dog I needed a cheaper run around. I was looking for a while and in the end found something a little different. It’s an old X5 which was tinkered with by Hartge. Not a big fan of the wheels, but the 5.0 engine is a weapon, and it’s also a cool colour, low mileage with an ex racing driver as the original owner. All in all it’s a bit of an oddity, but really exciting.....

Happy to say hi :thumbsup:

I’m not actually a fan of the styling, but that engine is a gift. Is there is an expert on the pre-face life E53 as I’d love to put back to a stock body? (Lucky I can get parts and resprays low cost).
