Hi everyone. Picked up my x5 3.0 diesel on Saturday. My vehicle was specced as follows.
Mineral white metallic with black leather
M sport package
Night vision
Pano roof
Lumbar support
Storage compartment package
Comfort seats front and rear
Adaptive led headlights
Extended light package
High beam assist
Surround view
Proff nav system
Harmon kardon
20" wheels
Electric towbar.
Here are a few pics
My dealer was 700km away from me so I had a lovely drive back home after I picked the car. Here are some of my thoughts.
Firstly the drive on this car was unbelievably smooth. I can't believe how refined this is compared to the previous
generation. I really enjoyed the comfort levels. Maybe the comfort seats had something to do with this but the ride quality is superb. On the whole trip my fuel consumption was 9.0 l/100km at speeds between 140 and 160 km/h. My salesman said it will drop after a few thousand km.
I had virtually zero body roll even on some twisty roads. Loved the Harmon kardon sound. Not sure if the extra for the b and o is worth it cause I have that on my m5 and the x5 sounds just as good.
Lots of people commenting on how goods the mineral white looks. The colour has a beautiful hue especially in the sun and at night. Pictures don't do justice on this color.
The led headlights was a real treat. Aesthetically it looks good and boy does it light up the road.
I love the 20s on this car. I think anything less does injustice to the body and the ride is as comfortable as a 7 series.
I also love the new touchpad system. Used it a few times already and it makes life much simpler.
My kids really enjoyed the rear comfort seats. They can recline the backrest to suit them and slide them for more room.
Overall I think bmw has a real winner on there hands. I looked at the ml and Porsche cayenne and I think they don't even come close to what the x5 offers. All you gents who are still awaiting delivery - you will be in for a treat when u get your vehicle.
Thanks for taking time reading this.
Regards
