Second pic is X3 in Paris first pic X1 in Frankfurt
Since you can fit this aftermarket I would really advise to wait, see one and then decide.
I see what you mean. Looks poor IMO. It did seem a bit strange that it was a stick on.

Paris and Frankfurt motor shows? I only went as far as Shepherd's Bush! You're a pro!

The bit around the 2 cup holders looks ok but the rest looks crap in the cold light of day

Bmw say

"These accent strips are overlaid on the interior trim finishers, and give an exclusive feel to the interior of the vehicle"

Thanks. You did well to order when you did. That is a monster lead time now, must put a lot of people off completely. I'm not sure I could cope!

My delivery date is still not confirmed but apparently it's being made at the moment. I ordered end of Oct.

Smile VDC vs Dynamic

I got 5% discount but this included an agreement to hold VAT at 17.5%. I was quoted £47.51 for the chrome exhaust trim.

Did you see a real sample of the red brown? I was surprised to see the huge difference between the US chestnut colour in photos compared to online so be careful if you haven't actually seen it.

Most people seem to think that VDC isn't worth the money and you can hardly tell the difference but I was tempted.

I would definitely opt for the sports steering wheel if I were you.
Thanks, would very much like to see how you find the ride in your combi.

I always drive hard/firm riding cars, so I think an X3 with sport Suspension should be more comfortable than other cars I have driven, hopefully.

The sport steering wheel is included in DP, so no need to add that.

I have seem a X3 with X-line pro at Paris motor show, but forgot what its like in real now, as I am quite interested in it.

I have ordered xline standard and the side skirts and bumpers would all be replaced if you go from xline to xline pro (I think??) so the only thing extra you would get by having both is the window surrounds and the loading sill on the boot. I think there is also a difference on the door sills too with xline having an aluminium finish and BMW printed.

As xline pro is not available until the summer and I really wanted the same look as the xline titanium silver that I took for a test drive, I didn't remove xline with a view to getting xline pro in the summer. It will have to be very good and not ridiculously expensive to persuade me to get it.

Nice spec/colour combo.

Where did you buy this belt clip? Does it stop the chimes if you don't put on the 'official' seat belt?

I love the seat colour. It is more brown than red that I've seen in other X3 pics.

thx, well altho is only the 2.0 liter diesel engine it has prety much all the optional equipment you can get including electric hayon, hi-fi dound and so on

@tank531 - I bought those from a guy selling news papers in traffic, is plastic and it stops the sound made by the lack of belt, doesn matter if you put the original belt or that one, is just for the city cause it has sport sits and is prety nasty to put the seat belt every time you come and go from the car + it messes the shirt.

(sorry for my english)
