Introduction... traded X5 for 730d

Hi guys

First post here. Just moved over from X5 World having traded my E70 for a new F01 730d. I look forward to sharing with you on the relative merits of this fantastic new model.

Give it a bit of time to break in the engine and everything else and that should improve a bit.

I've moved on to my second one as the post originated about 4 years ago. I'm pretty pleased with it hence the subsequent replacement with another 7.
