Any E70 enthusiasts out there?
Discussion
I found this link (hope it works) for the 07 X5 when I was trying to work the spec of my car as it had the options and prices to match.
Hope its of some use?

Also on cleaning the running boards I've posted a different thread on here and had a recommendation to use Meguiars metal polish, I've bought some to see how we get on, although last time I tried some Wonder wheeels cleaner rinsed off afterwards followed by Autosol which came up pretty well but still requires another go.

I found a car that seems interesting. I managed to get a pdf copy of the internal description from the selling dealer in Germany. But some of the options codes are unclear to me. Do we have a decoder/translator available anywhere?
For example!
S3APA Graukeil-Frontscheibe which they translate to "windshield with grey corner" which seems just plain silly.
S522A Xenon-Licht - I wonder if that is both high and low beams?
Any help most welcome

Reading further, I see that the car has these also
S855A Sprachversion Italienisch, Italian language version
S884A Italienisch /Bordliteratur, owner manual in Italian
This suggests to me that the car was not originally delivered in Deutschland, but rather in Italy (or preferably in Italian-speaking CH). I've been to Rome on business several times, and based on the driving I saw I would rather not buy a used car from Italy. I remember seeing cars bounce off each other in traffic, and the drivers did not even stop to look at the damage. After some indelicate hand gestures, off they went, each their own way.

Xenon lights were an option on pre-LCI models and were astonishingly rarely ticked option when I looked for my first E70. They are both low & high beam iirc.
The other option is windscreen with grey shade band across the top. Surprisingly useful since without it, the sun visors are reasonably ineffective.
I'm fluent in German so post or PM me if you need any translation.

Thanks for the offer. Me wife and a kid or two also sprachen that Deutsch stuff.
It turns out that this car is from Milano, which is another kettle of fish as I have vivid memories of Italian driving from my business trips to Rome. How German got into the mix is something I need to take up with the broker tomorrow right after he has his first cuppa joe. I'm perplexed to say the least.

CLOSED. This car did not have keyless entry and start, so I passed on it. What's more, the broker tried to hard-sell me the car anyway, thus dinging our relationship a bit. I'll still work with him, but I really dislike hardball sales tactics. My background is software marketing so I know a bit about selling too.
