  1. Looks nice! Not worth sticker price IMO but it's a cool car. I wanted those wheels on my E39 .. Almost had them but got out bid

    Rush

    Lol wanted to see this the other night... Girlfriend wanted to see "Meet the Wilsons" or something stupid... Compromised and saw "White House Down" which we both ended up really enjoying! (Recommended) Next is Rush
  3. Mine are a bit foggy too. Not sure if it's getting worse. Did you end up using PlastX?
  4. That looks like a very comfortable and special place to be. Ordinarily I hate woodgrain but in conjunction with the caramel interior it is very classy.

    Xbone or PS4?

    The only games I really like are the CoD games (Online + Campaign), Halo campaign, and car games (Test Drive Unlimited is awesome )
  6. Wow another one! Looks like a good buy, could probably knock a grand or two off.
  7. Mum was spending $200+/wk in the ML500. Since getting the X5 30d it's a fraction of the cost.
  8. Happens to belong to 'M3AN' - Would never have guessed

    Xbone or PS4?

    Think I'll be going Xbox One also. I've always been an Xbox player so would feel weird going to a PS4 regardless of whether it's better or not. Also, most of my friends are getting XB1 too and to be frank the only reason I play is for online with mates so no point getting the other console!

  11. Yup it's bright There has been a SSII one done already too
  12. I bought a full stock E92 exhaust and intake system. I took the tips off the exhaust. Degreased them and polished them up nicely. Not really sure what I'm going to do with them... I was considering painting them black but don't think it'll look very good on Silverstone II. I was bored and it gave me something to do on a Sunday afternoon! I bought the OEM exhaust in case I ever want to change back to stock (cheaper and easier than rewelding the pipes in stock configuration). The plenum I have plans for! Not sure how well it'll turn out or when I'll get round to doing it but it's in my mind. to this... ?

    E39 540i

    Hey mate Your car had that steering wheel initially but it reminded me of a sad clown so I swapped it! The one I got is the same as the E46 M3 wheel from memory (it's OEM too by the way)

    BMW 530i M-Sport

    They look cool! Any raw pics?
  15. ---- But yes, very good photos! I need to learn aperture priority (?) Is that the style with the blurred background or is that post-edited?
  16. Mmmm very nice! Looking forward to more photos!
  17. I've since had the spark plugs replaced by Ray (thanks!) Ray also scanned the car with no issues coming up which is nice! I have some big changes coming up too!
  18. Ah I see! Haven't done any reading on them yet ... Haha it's coming together! Mum has been working really hard in her business over the past 13 years and it's taken off in the last 3 years with unimaginable growth so if anyone deserves it, it's her!

  20. Yep 30d. It's a nice engine, good pick up. The X1 was an alright drive. Very heavy steering. The servotronic on the X5 is great. This is night and day difference. Much nicer car to drive. Feels much more planted, handles really well for such a big car. I imagine we'll have it for quite awhile (it's Mum's). I expect she'll be buying her dream car soon (Maserati?? ) and we'll keep the X5 as a "workhorse". Yep, the Performance pack came fully-optioned as standard AFAIK. No need to remap. She drives pretty sedately and she's come from an ML500 (before X1) and I don't think she's after speed. Also it'll void factory warranty (I think?) The diesel is a nice change... The ML was $200/wk fuel .. She drives a lot for work!

    Angel eye swapping is a very simple unscrew (slight twist) and pull out (and disconnect cable)
