I recognize your car from the YouTube vid on the new x3m vs x3 m40i w/ Joe Achilles. That video helped me realize that I wanted an m40i for myself. Thanks

Sure, it’s castle Fraser in Aberdeenshire. I’ve posted another picture outside it a few pages back when it’s light.

First time out in the snow last night, bit sketchy on the Pirelli summer tyres!

Mid week break to the UK Lake district, hoping to try the winters, but no snow on the roads....just road grime. This is at Wast Water.

Not sure what it is but that looks awesome. Normally the lip and color are enough but maybe the combo of it all. But whatever it is thats awesome. Great job so far.

For anyone that's been to Wast Water it is a Dark, Moody but glorious location. England's deepest lake leading to England's highest mountain(on the far right)

The X3 just seemed to capture and suit the moment, but wished it would have been cleaner with no brown rim around the tire's. But that Maxton Lip does the job.

Looks great! That front lip makes it look so much more aggressive. What wheels are you running and what size? Idk if it's the angle but they almost look like 22s

They are only black 19” Autec kitano with winter continental Ts860’s. They do have large sidewalls which makes them overall about the same size as my 21” 718’s

Just a VRSF catless downpipe and some 20mm spacers up front. Considering a set of Niche Vossos

Great to see these cars have seen some really awesome places!

Thanks! Lots of the X3M crowd disagree with us, but we're all different. Like i said, if i lived somewhere with better roads then i can see the value but for most of the UK and the hideous pothole riddled surfaces we deal with, it's just too stiff. Still very happy with my M40i.

Other videos from that day are now live, but we're having to rerun that test later this week. Will post link when it's live, or just go subscribe to the Carwow youtube channel and wait a few weeks...
