Now the colour .... ordered as silver but have an inkling for either the Red or sparkling brown .... go on give me your opinions ?

If I went for Red I'd probably change to black interior or Brown ... maybe beige ? or oyster ?

Is Sparkling brown and Mocha too much like a Bourbon biscuit ?

I have left the nav as the standard business set up. I currently have pro nav in the X1 but to be honest rarely use the nav, (call me a dinosaur but I kinda like looking at a map and planning a route) and never once used the online thingy's in the last three years. I suppose the RTTI would be useful for my commute but I find that my free WAZE on the Iphone is quicker at telling me of problems. I think the business nav has been upgraded so it wont be much different from my 3 yr old prov nav apart from a slightly smaller screen, which seems to be better integrated into the dash than in the pre LCI model

My view is the standard X3 is very generous with its spec and pretty much anything we add on tends to be a luxury. I can't think of any "must have" features that aren't already there although clearly there are lots of goodies that can be added.
