Pick X3 up on 23/2/19

Pete17 · 02-24-2019, 09:26 AM

Hi All,
Picked my X3 2.0d M Sport up yesterday, I have to say it drives really well, colour combination looks so good. I was wondered if the ride would be different from the one I test drove with 19" wheels but I have to say it is spot on. Only thing I have a problem with is there is some scratches on the centre display screen, I would not of thought these screens would scratch so easy, my current car has a touch screen and there is not a single mark on after 2 years.
Anyone else had this problem?
I have added a few pics.

Pete

Looks great!

The touch screen often has a plastic film over it when it leaves the factory, make sure yours is not still on there.

Great looking car!

Hope you enjoy it!

Congrats! It looks great. +2 regarding the touchscreen having a film over it. Most likely still on there and the dealership didn't remove it before you took delivery.

Best color and wheel combo

Congrats and enjoy the ride!

After you resolve the screen scratch marks issue, you may want to check this out. I use this on my screen and it's perfect. Same concept as adding a glass screen protector on your smart phone.

Screen sorted, the screen film was still on. Think I will invest in one of the screen protectors.

Congrats and welcome to the X3 family! Nice interior color as it goes well with the Blue exterior.

Glad the ride on the 20" worked out for you. Looks great.

Trust it feels like a step up on the Kadjar?
