What body colour do you guys recommend? Thanks in advance

Congratulations mate and welcome to the forum!

colours huh? Ordinarily, I would say any colour but white (or black) but, if you're going for a black contrast roof with black pack then Fuji White looks great. Eiger Grey with Black pack might be a bit dark but I think would still look good (that's down to personal taste though). If you like the white then consider Yulong White, it's a 2K option like the Eiger Grey but much nicer than the free but flat looking Fuji White.

Good luck with the colour choice!

Thanks. I am keen to go with Fuji white now. With the extra money that I was going to pay for Eiger Gray may as well get the front console refrigerator compartment!! It’s a cool upgrade I think. Any suggestions?

Just double check you really need the panoramic roof - love or hate - so just confirm it is for you.

I have the cubby fridge in my old RRS and I would be lost without it - definitely would be on my list. Both your colours look great but white will contrast with the black roof the best. (Red also looks great )

Cheers

Thanks Garry. I’ll consider the front console refrigerator. Panoramic roof is for my 6 year old girl. She doesn’t care what car I buy but she is a fan of panoramic roof 😜. Thanks again for your replies. This forum is great!

Does it have a shade or are you going to cook in summer. So this is your 6yo daughters car .

Congratulations mate. I have also ordered 22My RRS 183Kw in March End and no information on Build Date yet.

It would be great if you can get some information on this when you are talking to your dealer.

As per dealer, delivery expected towards Mid/End October.

What's your delivery commitment from dealer?

Hi Napsterx,
Thanks,
Congratulations to you too. mine would be delivered in November. I was told that semiconductors and reverse camera are not in stock due to COVID hence the delay in delivery. I’ll keep you posted if I have an update.

I have just taken delivery of an Eiger Grey HSE. I did consider the black pack, but did not want 21in wheels (I spend a lot of time in the snow), so did not go that way. As fate would have it, I am currently up the mountains, and I am parked next to an identical HSE, but with the black pack. Call me biased, but I think the silver trim and wheels actually work better with Eiger Grey.

I went with the 221kw engine, pano roof, tow hitch receiver, Meridian sound system (amazing!), and TPMS.

Having owned 3 X5s, I expected that I would be giving up some handling performance as a trade for comfort. Nothing of the sort! It was an absolute delight on the Hume, as expected, but also amazingly good going up the mountain. Better than the last X5.

You will enjoy whatever you get… except for the waiting!
