sounds like a great car you've got on order.
will be interested in seeing what the interior is like.
Where abouts in the UK are you?

Ermm, mainly in Hampshire, Surrey and Norfolk

How you finding the alpina rims ? If I dont get on with the standard runflat 18"s I may well look into 19"s and the Alpinas are tasty. Any idea what the standalone price for them was ?

Olly,

Post pics asap. I've really got to make my mind up tomorrow (22nd) on which way to go for next car (long story).

Contenders are: -

1. Another E90 320d SE - great on tax
2. 535d Sport Individual - can't decide on colours
3. X5 3.0d Sport Special Edition (individual paint & leather)
4. Porsche Cayenne - most likely a 3.2 V6 to save on tax.

I'd really like to know your thoughts on how the Individual turns out before making my mind up.

Cheers.

Dude, I pick the car up at 3 ish tomorrow, I will then have to drive home to norfolk before I can post any photos, which will be taken in the dark therefore

I will try and do something beforehand but I will definately report on the quality when i get back home (probably about 9- 10 ish im afraid...I go home via my currently non web enabled flat in guildford )

I guarantee photos on Saturday though...weather permitting

Or if you pm me a mobile number I can phone photo you some shots but they won't be very good

I'll stall the decision to Monday and wait for your thoughts and pics.

Cheers.
