I went to see a house that just went on the market that day, and when I got there this was parked in the driveway. I think I said something like... OMFG no way! there's my car already parked in the driveway!! It was mineral silver and a beauty. I'll take the house but only if the car comes with it

Is this anyone's X3 here on the forum?

Great work from your wingman with the confirmation. My wingman has labelled new X3 watching a silly pursuit and is less helpful Still zero after being teased with another X1 earlier

I had the same feeling the other day but it turned out just to be trapped wind.

Heading north tomorrow for a few days holiday. The car park at Centreparks always has hundreds of cars in it. Surely there must be one in there ......

Common as muck now!

Spotted 3 on way home from Dorset

Bluewater, deep sea blue and space grey

The bluewater one had a bonnet thing (looked like a Jaguar leaper!?! right in the middle of the bonnet)

They say if you do an hour on the M25 and don't see one, you're not a real man. I was only on it for 45 mins each way this morning: No dice. Forgot it was an early morning trip and we've just put the clocks forward so it was dark in both directions - makes it a challenge!

A hat trick including a bluewater? You must have driven through F25 central

I covered 480 miles this weekend. One possible X3 sighting in Black, on M6 heading northwest just past M42 at about 15:00 10/04 Sun ? To be fair I didnt see any Q5.

(and 1 mile from home got a nail in the tyre which will probably mean I'll need to buy 2 new tyes to last the summer before I sell (the E46)).

I covered about 200 miles and saw 3 white Q5s this weekend but still not one new X3. They must be concentrated in certain areas.
