Congrats
You forgot to add the optional MUD so that when delivered it looks like it has already been used! Why not get a ladder fitted at the same time - easier at this stage.
And the Mantec plate?

The ladder is a rivnuts job again so depends if you can do these (bit like the RAI)
The rack is easy enough but not a 1 person job unless you can lower it into place with a pulley.
Some have full UB protection - most just the Mantec sump guard. Depends what you are going to do with it I suppose.

Next thing to organise is some off road activity in March
So i will be keeping a eye out for days out in scotland at first to give the disco a try oot
So if anyone is organising anything i would apprieciate a nod Its not the height of the fall but the sudden stop at the bottom that hurts!!
I hope you don't regret the D3. However, if your dealer is 'local', you may yet come to regret that.......
Should have a day out organised again this year for the Saltire crew. The older I get, the more I realise that people confuse wrinkles for wisdom

Welcome and great choice
Always events running, keep an eye on the site for info. There is likely to be a new owners training day in the Spring, would be ideal for you to see what the D3 can do.2020 BMW X1 18d XDrive X-Line Auto
