New X1 owner

bjp1979 · 08-07-2016, 01:30 AM

Hi all,

Been reading this forum for a while now and thought I would introduce myself.

Based in Manchester, UK, I'm not strictly an 'owner' (I have ordered the car as a personal lease). The spec ordered is a 20d X1 Xdrive M Sport in Sapphire Black with comfort pack, reversing camera, deleted m sport suspension and EDC to replace it (car being used as a family vehicle so no need for M sport suspension). The interior is the alacanra/cloth sports seats mix with hexagonal aluminium (or aluminum for American readers!) dash.

The X1 replaces a Golf TDI which I have as a company car. It isn't due to be handed back till 4th Jan which is the date I have ordered my X1 for (next week I will be bickering the fleet manager to see if he will take the Golf back sooner as a pool car so I can get the X1 earlier as it will be at the Dealer late Oct).

As its potentially a long wait I hope to post pics of the car sooner rather than later!

Congrats & welcome! Hope you can get your car sooner rather than later: nice car as the Golf is, the X1 is in a different league.
