Just been out to check the car’s lighting.
Yep. Southend inside.
And I can now raise and lower the suspension.

Loved my X5, it was a great car.I remember auld Jeremy Clackerbag summarising the X5 as a completely pointless car. Seems strange to me that after BMW and Mercedes spent decades building reputations for making utility saloons they then spoilt it with people carriers, 4x4s etc.
But then you discovered a hifi forum.My I was sad back then

I get the image thing but I thoroughly enjoy letting people out of junctions and giving way to them just to see them stare in disbelief and often kangaroo in surprise at the unexpected.
...wrong. It's a Rangey, not a BMW.
That reminds me of a time I was upgrading the shock-absorbers on a Civic GTi. The workshop ordered the wrong Konis for the back end, but went ahead with the fronts; and asked me to come back the next day for the rears. They did not tell me not to push it. As an impressionable young lad with sports suspension half installed on his car, what was I to do? I pushed it, and I managed to swap ends rounding a downhill corner on a trailing throttle. Thankfully, it was a right-hander, and the gravel run off was generous. No harm done, but it was a salutary lesson about traction, FWD dynamics and lift-off oversteer.On a FWD vehicle putting matched tyres on the front axel and having mismatched ones on the rear is often held to be preferable to any other configuration, but in actuality you should have your best tyres on the rear of a FWD vehicle as any loss of traction from the heavier driven front is likely to be understeer and far easier to correct.
