The display size is 6.5 inches. Should display Track, Album and Artist info on the display but does not show album art unless I am missing out on something. Should be something similar to the pic below |

The last thing you want is curbed alloys so the mirrors give a view of the curb when reversing. The reversing camera is very good. The car is large and although its fitted with sensors, with the camera parking is a breeze. Top view gives an excellent view around 3 sides of the car if you can run to it. My 2p worth. Cheers |

Titanium Silver M Sport X3 - Collected today
Happy to say that I was able to collect my car today. Also fortunate that the weather has been kind today and stayed dry for me to enjoy the car.
First impressions are very positive. This includes feedback from the rest of the family. I have taken a few pictures which are attached below: Attachment 708946 Attachment 708948 Attachment 708949 Attachment 708944 Attachment 708947 Attachment 708950 Attachment 708945 I will take some better ones in due course, but I've got to say I'm very happy with the colour and the look of the M Sport. Will post a full review once a reasonable mileage has been covered.

After two car washes by the local dealer (when in for warranty issues ) my X3 was covered in micro scratches and I have taken the plunge and am having it paint corrected / professionally detailed. At 2 months old...
I will post some pics (the first ones!) when it is done. I will also never, ever, let a dealer touch it again.

First Pics of my 3.0D CB MSport
Poor excuse I know, but I blame the English weather. I've had "her" since 1st June and I am only now posting my first pics. I went to the Cholmondeley Pageant of Power on Saturday and the parking grounds were a mudbath. Then, on Sunday it didn't rain. And it was cool. So 4 hours and some (well, quite a lot really) Autoglym High Definition Wax later I feel she's ready to be shared. Note the colour - in the first it looks black. Then it gets a little bit bluer, then, in the last with the open tailgate you can see it looks really blue. And this is the same camera (my iPhone) with pics taken within a few minutes of each other. The only significant variable is the angle of reflection. Needless to say I love it. Totally. However, if I had a spare £1.2M I might be tempted to be unfaithful and snap up one of the last Aston Martin One-77s. Apparently of the 77 to be made, 18 are unsold. More than one owner has bought two. One to drive, one to treasure. Ah well....

My dealer uses a machine to wash cars so this is why they come back scratched.
Last time they rang me up on a service follow up call I told them to scrap the machine and employ a bunch of eastern european workers to do a proper hand wash. |

I hope they ignored your completely ignorant comment.

Picked the car up 2 days later and discovered that the paintwork was covered in minor scratches Emailed the garage once I seen the damage and got a phone call from the manager 6 weeks after to ask about my email. He could only offer his apologies. I don't think I'll ever be in Dundee again.

I suspose its the same argument about 'free' Wifi at hotels. Cheap hotels tend to offer it as free, 4 and 5 star tend to charge lots of money. Some type of reverse thinking going on? |

I do defo agree that charging for USB is a bit OTT but I guess BMW can and so they do. I bet when the X3 goes through a LCI update they will be standard. I think they are standard on the new 3 series and 5 series. |

That's interesting. I've got the same setup and don't get artwork. Pretty sure the images are there on my USB stick as they show up in our Mini (that does have nav).
