Congrats on the car!
Just below the text entry area is "Attachments". Click browse, find your images one at a time, and then click upload. Repeat for the next image. Once all have been uploaded, drop down the "Manage current attachments". It seems you have to click twice on each to insert the names into the text area. I then reformat the text area so the pics are vertical and not horizontal.

Welcome Mcdcherry !
Nice car and combo
And you?re a diesel-friend too
A little tip: The engine is a little bit ruff when it?s new but it will loosen up around 3000 to 5000 km (2000 to 3000 miles). You can actually feel the difference
Have you already been thinking of a remap/chiptuning ? If so what kind ?

Hey thanks for the welcome and kind words. As most do, I am thinking 'what can I do to it?'... I remaped my XC90 with a 'plug in' removable BSR chip. I guess as my new ride is a contract hire ?45k car, i'm nervous about insurance/warranty issues. It would be just my luck to either A) Not inform my company's insurance company about the remap to avoid huge premiums and then have an accident and end up ?45k out of pocket, or
A major problem happen with the car and BMW discover the remap and refuse to cover the cost of said work and again 'lil old me out of pocket.So, yes, I'd LOVE, and I mean LOVE to remap it as I know the gains and increased driving pleasure that can be achieved are just great. But I'm too worried about it. Any advice would be most welcome.
Had to go out today on a very important errand at work
it took about an hour This car is just getting better and better. Can't wait to get to the 2-3k mile mark you mention, i guess then I can relax about giving it a bit more as it will be officially 'run-in' too. Each day is a new experience.
More pics to post at the weekend, promise...
