Picked it up from Luton yesterday so had a good 100 mile run home to get a feel for it....the list of work to do isnt too horrendous either....hopefully!!
Needs:
- front suspension bushes
- A bluetooth module as mine is missing!
- rear tv's fitted but not connected to anything Rolling Eyes
- front parking sensor needs replaing
- rear wiper blade

First impressions are amazing! smooth, effortless to drive, even averaged 25mpg on the way home! Thumbs Up

Exactly the same as mine, both inside and out. Only thing to distinguish them would be the light guards and different wheels.

I never thought I'd like blue interior, but I really do love it now.

Rear wiper should just be sticking, easy job to take the spoiler off and give it a spruce.

Looks lovely, enjoy

Its the 4.4 V8 petrol...one of my first jobs this weekend is to try and get the rear screens working, however, there is no RSE module i can see anywhere, no aux input or control panel above the rear vents, no dvd changer in the boot.....there is an xtrons module under the cover to the rear of the centre console though...
Going to have to do some cable tracing me thinks! Confused

yes, i looked at that, 4.4 v8, that could mean the M62 but i think half way through the year they changed the engine to some thing else, it could be a 4.4 v8 some thing else
i am not familiar with the models, in fact i only know what i have read on here and some times, following some posts goes right over my head because i dont know the terminology etc of what they are discussing.
i have my notes
ECU = electrical control unit
DSC = dynamic stability control
etc
