proud owner on my first x5... but was a little duped
Hi everyone my name is Darren and im from near cambridge uk, over the weekend i became the proud owner of my first bmw x5, its a 4.6is v8 with a lpg conversion
the reason i say i was a little duped is because it was listed for sale as a limited edition carbon black model, but after looking under the bonnet (after purchase) i noticed the colour code is saphire black.... tbh i love the car and very impressed with its power and overall spec and if im honest after googling the two colour differences i think i actually prefer the saphire colour to the carbon, but my question is what would have i got extra had it been the carbon black edition as listed for sale as ? either way i love my x5 and will hopefully get to know a few of you on here a little better over time ![]() here is the specs from the for sale avert and also some pics of my x5 bmw x5 4.6is carbon black limited edition Bmw FSH 124'000) last serviced 1k miles ago including discs and pads e70 20" alloy wheels BRC LPG conversion all-round new tyres Electric windows Air conditioning Satellite navigation Parking aid front and rear Leather trim Heated front seats electric sports front seats (drivers memory) Power steering electric Steering wheel adjustment Alarm, Immobiliser Driver's airbags, Side airbags, Passenger airbags ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

I don't think a carbon black model was ever made, so you may have been duped.
However, looks like a beautiful 4.6!

Can't help with the color option, but it's a good looking X5! Still catches me off guard to see the steering wheel on the other side though.
Not sure if you know, but you can check the details of the vehicle doing a VIN decode, and they'll be able to tell you exactly what BMW shipped the vehicle with. Just Google BMW VIN Decode and you should get lots of options.

yeah they def did make a carbon black model e53 x5 (loads of info on google) but couldnt find and specific guide as to what they had over the standard 4.6is from factory
have tried a few vin decoders but cant find one that tells me the trim etc the car left factory with, they all seem to just list the basics |
