Bali Blue SD4 has landed

Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Bali Blue SD4 arrived this morning!

Had a very nervous nights sleep last night wondering if I had done the right thing going for such an unusual colour but when it arrived today all my doubts were soon washed away - it is gorgeous!

Havent had chance to explore it much yet as I have had to go to work when it arrived Sad but first impressions are excellent, engine is much quieter than my previous TD4 and it is much more powerful meaning I hardly have to touch the accelerator, this means much better mpg. The journey to work in my TD4 used to achieve 25mpg, today I managed 35mpg!!! Shocked

Will post some pics in the next few days Now - 2017 BMW X3 M Sport Carbon Black

Finally got round to a quick pic of my new FL2. Been to Stratford today and managed 40.4mpg!! Shocked and wasnt driving like Miss Daisy - well impressed. As said before the greater power means you can be less heavy on the pedal thus improve your mpg - all FL2's should have this 190ps version!!

Turned a few heads driving in the town - even had some people stuck in traffic comment how nice the colour is! Will get some better pics up over the weekend.

couple more pics i took yesterday showing the bali more blue than purple - really depends on the light! Ignore all the buses I hadnt strayed into a bus station, the unit next door buys them and ships them abroad!

Sorry, I don't like that colour at all.

I still think the FL2 looks better in either black, lago or stornaway. Thumbs Up
