Hi everyone, Kirk is my name. I'm new to Bimmerfest but not new to BMW. I started out with a 1994 325is, moved into a 2003 540i M-sport and now a new owner of a 2008 X5. I would have preferred to keep the 540 but a nice young lady decided to put her Jeep Grand Cherokee in my trunk. Needless to say, the vehicle was totaled. Looks like I need to get the hang of the automatic - I'm not a fan. Cheers all. KT
