Anyone from UK in this Forum

My X7 M50D recently went into production and would like to know if any other have ordered one in UK.

As per what my dealer can see mine was the first one ordered (M50D) in the country but glad you received yours. post some pics please. I drove the test car and the noise inside the cabin seems more then what I expected through those speakers. What do you think?

I've found it pretty quiet in comfort/eco pro and pleasantly noisy in Sport and Sport+. It will also glide on a decent stretch of road making no noise whatsoever.

I'm just annoyed mine came without the ventilated seats, RSE and all of the self driving aids. Pretty much everything else is on it though.

My x7 m50d

Hi,

I think I was lucky as the dealer had ordered it as a demo or something and they managed to swap it out and sell it to me early enough so that I could spec it.

Hope you like the pics.. The only time it will be that clean! Been raining here for the last 36hrs, car now dirty

The noise in the cabin in non existent, really whisper quiet, great drive and the B&W sound system is amazing, perhaps better than the Burmester I used to have in my old Panamera.

Looks spectacular! That Phytonic was the colour I would have ordered if I'd had any patience. 6 months was just too long though. Thanks for rubbing in the fact that you got all the extras I didn't AND the B&O to top it off

I spent 1hr 45 mins in nose to tail traffic travelling the 12 miles to work. Most of it in Eco Pro with a 10 sec blast in Sports+. Its a very pleasant place to spend time in...

I’m *from* the UK also... and my X7 has a “50” in it? Does that count?

Stunning colour. (See, I even included the “u” in “colour”). Congrats!

Nice job on the "u". Now....is it boot or trunk?

Are you glad the only 50 you could have was the "i" or do you covet the D?

Nice colour friend!

I opted for Carbon black and included B&W still a long wait I suppose. Though it will be long before I receive the car but I have already booked ceramic coating next day of delivery. I did not add 4 wheel steering and laser lights but rest all included.

The X7 is still a very rare sight in the UK. Apart from some dealers showrooms, I have not seen one on the roads yet.

After waiting almost 2 years, I was about to bite the bullet and get a used 40i. Amazingly, I came across an M50i !! Apparently there are a handful in the UK. Bought without seeing or driving it. Not the colour or spec I desired but I didn't want to wait any longer.

UK spec cars are the lowest priority for the factory.

Early days, but loving the X7 after my GLS.....

I live in the UK. I had nearly ordered a 400d GLS until I took the 40i out for a test drive. With the smoothness and refined ride of the petrol, they don't even compare. Love my X7.

I LOVE blue cars. When I ordered my 2019 , the only blue available was squad car blue. I couldn't stand it. I bought my first white automobile. This blue however, is gorgeous!!!
