My Ride: '04 530d SE, Mystic Blue with grey dakota leather...
...Sunroof, Through-Loading, heated seats, headlight washer...
......Bluetooth, 6-disc CD, Business Nav, 18" star spoke 123 alloys
and a full set of mats
Hi, just dropping a note to say hello...
I've had my (used) 530d SE for three months now, very pleased so far...found this site when searching for help about my 'eyebrows' not working!!
This is my first BMW, had to get the sensible family in time for the little one coming along (he's 8 weeks old today
) so I had to part with my Prelude to get something with four doors and a big boot...530d damn fine choice if I say so myself.
Would be interested in hearing about peoples experience of dealers in the NW (Williams Bolton is nearest home), but Williams Mcr and David Holmes are close to my work, especially as after reading the posts on the site I need a dealer to get a CIP upgrade to get my brows working!

Went to London for the weekend, surprise birthday visit for my wife. Was very good - we unloaded the three children at my parents house in Oxford on the way down, then checked in to the Savoy and watched a West End show and ate and drank lots. Back home now. And the trip took my car up to 1,600 miles so it's really loosened up now
