Very nice indeed...............Not often we see new members with a 4.4i facelift as trhey arent the most common of things - Good choice btw ;)

The most economical petrol X5, 6 speed box and 320 bhp..........Oh and doesnt show the dirt in that colour as much as most others .....Nice  :)

Would be intersted to see some real world car fuel computer calculated mpg figures at some point - assuming you know how to recalculate so it is reflective of your driving and car consumption as it is now.

On that plate I am guessing it may have had BMW UK or a dealer as 1st keeper on the V5 & that it was one of the 1st UK registered facelift cars

Like mine - best spec and colour ;) really nice example.

Been tracking fuel usage on mine over the last year since I bought it. Decent runs with combination of motorway and A roads with a trans pennine section give me just over 20mpg. My daily driving around town is closer to 12mpg.

Hi all , it's a January 2004 registration , yes I think the colour is called sterling grey , it's only got 64000 on the clock and drives superb , mpg wise I'm getting around 24-25mpg on my commute to / from work which is a mixture of urban and motorway , I'm taking it on a longer trip this coming weekend so should have some more figures next week .

I will be keeping it totally standard

Cheers
