Dimming Door mirror lenses
Morning Kevin Both my X5's (UK Spec) do indeed have both mirrors dimming plus the interior mirror. Using a Vin Decoder will let you know what your car was odered with. It is very possible that a mirror glass has been damaged and replaced with a standard glass (I have known a Dealer do this). Once you know what should be there you have a choice as to whether you replace the mirror glass or live with what you have I don't know if they are readily available on the after market but I guess that from BMW they will be order only and not cheap Hope this Helps Dave -

Low annual.use.
Morning Dennis Welcome to the Forum Is that 3 months in a block or over the 12 month span ? My only thought would be is a new car actually necessary or is a low mileage second user car the way to go (it would work for me) The main issues folks have with low use cars are Battery related so if you don't have one get a good battery trickle charger and make sure the Battery is Tip Top particularly when it's cold like this morning Dave -

A paddling pool in the rear of my 08 reg 635d Convertible !!
Hi Dave. Please excuse the delay in replying to your comment but it would appear that I have been suffering with temporary amnesia - I have been trying to sign-in with an incorrect forum ID. Short answer - No. I no longer have the 635d because I just could not get the drivers seat into a comfortable position because of my rather short stature and shorter than normal torso. The issue was especially a problem in tight traffic situations and with the door mirrors and the 'A' pillars being quite intrusive. It was a very difficult decision but a few close shaves were far to risky with such a high insurance bracket (50 E) and a renewal figure of £785.00+ was what decided it in the end. It turned out that the car had had a remap which clearly accounted for the exceptionally rapid propulsion over and above the manufactures stated 0-62mph. It was returning very respectable fuel figures for such a poky piece of kit. I PX'd it for a 10 plate Mercedes C220 CDI Elegance 170 bhp Blueefficiency Auto with 82,000 recorded miles. It was registered to Mercedes Macclesfield as a demo car and then sold to a local doctor who kept it in pristine condition until it was sold to a local trader.
