    Sorry!! It was 2:30 am. I went to bed straight after.LOL.

    I can tell you this. Don't buy an X5. My ex had one. She thought she looked good in one, 'till she got her first garage bill! Oh, not forgetting the horrendous fuel consumption. Lets be honest, anything over 2t and 5ft tall is not going to good on fuel is it!? Just to get the thing moving and on the slightest hill...watch your fuel consumption go into single figures.

    What people are forgetting is the way Frankie drives he's used to crap MPG, and he won't have to worry about repair bills, as it'll be up for sale soon.
