Hi All just joined the forum and looking forward to many more post.

I purchased my X3MC last week and will pick up towards end of month. I traded in my G30 530d xdrive msport which I am sad to see her go. One if the best all round cars I have ever driven. My new X3 is black on black. I have added a few pics of the actual car i purchased in the showroom and also my current car for nostalgic reasons

Your 530 looks gorgeous, but the new X3MC is a serious step UP!!

Both lovely looking motors Carmicro. I love the Carbon trim it really sets off the cabin.

What sort of spec did you go for?

I've just traded my 2016 535 F11 for a Phytonic Blue X3MC.

Like you I'll be sad to see the F11 go it's my 3rd one and loved all of them definitely the best cars I've ever owned, but still counting down the sleeps till I get the new motor.

Thanks. As I mentioned the G30 is a great car I just needed more space at rear because it didn’t have folding seats.

Comfort package
Pano roof
Adv Drive plus
Apple car play
Heat front rear seats
Gesture
Cannot remember the rest !

Yep test drive on smooth and unsmooth UK roads pleasantly surprised by ride considering people say it’s a hard ride. It’s a M Car I expect it being abit stiff!

My brother has a M2 competition now that stiff. Have back pain after I get out of the car.

I do think it is stiff but I agree it's to be expected with an M car. It's not unpleasant and I had no issues with my commute this week!
