Thanks all

So I am the sand man (long story with a nickname from school days!)

Got the car and ended up travelling , so no flattering pics (X7 M50d)

Here is one from my garage, and another from the dealer floor

Thanks all for the warm welcome

History on our family's end has been mostly Mercedes

Last fun car was an E400 AMG line coupe - with family growing it was a little impractical (but so much fun )

Considered the GLS range with Merc, but online reviews seemed to indicate it could not justify its "S Class of SUVs" label , with build quality dropping significantly over the last few years , and a little behind BMW in tech.

Even though it hasn't been long, the X is really impressing from all angles.

Couple of annoyances but I'll look at over time - but so far happy chappy
