Thanks for the comments everyone. Car was delivered at midday, but I had a really busy day at work so only got to drive it home late last night. Great to drive, really impressed. It is so much more refined and comfortable than the E46 coupe I have been driving for the last month or so. Already got to grips with the i-drive, which seems pretty intuitive to me, don't know what all the fuss in the press is about.

Here are a couple of pics whilst the car is still spotless, will post some more and further thoughts soon.

hey thanks for listening, that picture came up quick,

love the car, and most of all those wheels must be new to the E60, as ive never come across them,

also i notice a face lift on the car too from previous models.

Excellent, congrats again matey

Any mods coming up then??

Congrats Lord Monkey and enjoy!

Like E60BEEMER mentioned above, nice choice of rims. Are they standard with the SE model in the UK or was that one of the options you went for?
