New X5 preview video kinda thing. Looks like they've finally made a full digital cockpit instead of the weird plastic ring affairs in the g30 etc

Interesting/Impressive Autogefühl managed to shoot a video on the new X5 before anybody else. Even the automotive press only have 'leaked photos' to rely on!

Looks like a fiesta at the rear.
my 67 plate m240i lci putting new carbon mirror covers on today along with black grilles only had the car 2 weeks im now loving it after replacing rear tyres
That's a nice motor. Personally, I wouldn't go with the black grilles or carbon mirror covers and spend the money on 4 wheel alignment instead, but that's just me
My M5 has black grilles and black side grilles which the previous owner had fitted at great expense (genuine BMW items). I looked into changing it all back to the standard chrome and black; as you'd imagine the standard kidneys are pretty cheap to pick up second hand, but the cost of the side grilles is really high with sets on eBay advertised for £150. So I decided to leave it as it is.
On the subject of cars with tricolour fins I think that looks awful. I had a 335i SE saloon on 17s. Kept it standard in appearance although it was mapped and had a couple of bolt ons. A low key version of a top end model is a good thing in my book.

Please don't, unless you like hanging out around the back of Tesco car parks with your bonnet open. And even if that's the case, please don't. Looks gorgeous as is
Appreciate everyone’s comments regarding grilles etc I’ve always found silver plastic to look cheap on cars never liked it and as for the mirrors I’m not a fan of the grey I would have preferred them to come black or same paint as car and as for carbon lol I’m picking up my weekend and funday driver tomorrow which is the brand new carbon edition rs5 which looks stunning I’ll put pics up of both cars together at the weekend
Sort of, although it's a combination of poor soundproofing and incredibly harsh UK roads.
My F30 was significantly quieter in Europe.
I went for a test drive up north in a 6 series and it was still very noisy. Odly enough - the local E class taxis were very silent, so it can be done with the right soundproofing.

The M1 was pretty smooth for the most part, it just sounded like a drone from the wheels. I couldn't hear the engine.
