| ![]() @Akshay- I totally agree with you Akshay. A Bentley FS Speed in a week is too early but probably AM ordered it much before than he made it public ![]() @AM- Needless to say the Bentley and BMW X5 are great choices. Have fun and ride safe. Awaiting pics soon ![]() |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Wow that's a very sensible and exciting decision. Flying spur speed is really awesome. Its going to be a stonker providing the best of both worlds. |

BHPian ![]() | ![]() Please Please do, and a little faster if possible. You own, You drive and You enjoy, but please let us breath in the quintessential essence of luxury that has found a new abode all because of you (and a little help from BMW cancelling your order for the top of the line beemer). Cheers again! Great choice! ![]() But could you please enlighten us on the options that you have ticked on the list if it is not a problem?. Please do not tell us that the "Flying B" logo pops up when you bring your car to life! I personally do not like it at all, spoils everything for me. No offence though, each to his own I guess |

Wont you feel a bit less exclusive In a 4.8 as it is now the official escort car fleet of the PM's 760Li. But im All in for the B ![]() Last edited by Technocrat : 16th November 2009 at 19:08. | |

| ![]() That looks very very OTT. As it is, the X5 isn't a good looking car (no offence AM) and the 4.8 is enough powerful. |

| ![]() Personally the x5M doesn't make sense to me ..... and i think the 4.8i would be good enough for the performance i expect from my suv . Also this car would be used for a go anywhere purpose ( not extreme go any where purpose though for that i have the prado) this is mostly a family car for me . AM |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Stick to the 4.8 ltr.makes more sense. I generally dont see the point in these performance suv's. |

BHPian ![]() | ![]() Except a single upside of the surge from the 4.8 engine the X5 is a car I particularly do not like. But nonetheless it may be an ugly car but its got the grunt inside. As for the M variant I would rather suggest that you stick to the normal 4.8, I second arjunrudra on that. But one thing that I do not get is why the beemers look uglier and simpler by the day. I mean, one look at the back end of the X5, and you can easily pass it off as the worst looking car in history (not to mention the morris marina, Clarkson and I have same feeling about this ![]() |

| ![]() The stock X5 looks way better than the G Power thing. It has a different type of AKAD to it. ![]() ![]() |
