Pulled the Trigger

TazOjla · 04-26-2014, 04:01 PM

Got this beast for the wife 2 months ago and just haven't got around to any mods apart from a titanium grille or pics, coming from the MB M-class it absolutely obliterates it, more power and more refined. As an avid M5 owner (E39,E60, choosing between an F10 M5 or 991 Turbo now) I knew I wanted an X5 and got her for £20,000 or $33,500 for an 2009 with 50k on the clock, 3.0SD with the third row and M-Sport not to mention it's loaded with toys! Here are my crappy iPhone pics

*Building our new house hence all the the rubbish, sorry!

Nice going mate. Now all she needs is a proper detailing and you'll be set.

Have any solutions to getting rid of swirls by hand? And could anyone give me some ideas for mods?

Congrats!

Only proper way to remove swirl marks is a good orbital polisher like a "porter cable" and a nice polish.
A days work and she will look like new.
