unless you're doing mega miles I wouldn't bother trading in and getting an "economy" diesel. 1) calculate the difference in costs of the cars, i guarantee mpg won't pay back the money you lose trading in 2) petrol's suddenly become a lot cheaper than diesel. 3) all cars will be electric or...

how is your tv working without a digital tuner? isn't analogue turned off?

just a quick one to stand up for the 4.4. I have a sport 2004, and it's epic. sadly getting driven less and less as I recently got a c63 so that's getting most of my attention these days. Depends on what you're looking for really, you could save a lot of money and get a 4.4 that has almost identical...

hopefully this won't happen but sometimes they go a bit funny before they're about to die (happened with mine). If this does happen have a look on the forum at amplifier repair, can get it sorted for a fraction of the price of BMW replacement.

congrate mate.
mine just sailed through as well.
Getting driven less and less these days as I have 2 other cars, so was slightly concerned lack of use would have done something, apparently not. Anyway might be time to sell as it's a waste to sit in the garage

where was this £30 place? MOT coming up so just readying myself...

my thoughts are with you guys X5Sport.

is that the same with the 4.4? also a waste of time or would it be any use?

I'd give a serious look at an x5 3.0 diesel for that budget. They were probably £15k more expensive new and I believe you can really tell the difference, especially with the interior.
Just something to think about...
Good luck with the search.

is 3pm at The Merlin in Alderley Edge ok? Sunday 11th.
Allows snipez999 to show us the power of the x6 down the bypass!

Sunday 11th December any use?

thanks guys, I'll get the idea out of my head!

Has anyone put different tips on a 4.4? I'm thinking chrome tips...any thoughts?

I'm around WIlmslow too mate!
I'm not very handy unfortunately but I'm really keen to learn so give me a shout if you're doing any work on yours and i'll come observe/hold things/make tea

speaking of air filters (which this almost was ) has anyone got opnions on performance air filters - K&N, pipercross etc?
do they make any difference?
