Good Evening,
Yesterday, I was blessed with this beauty, a 2006 BMW X5 3.0i. The vehicle had just over 10,000 clicks on the clock and the New England winter proved it's wrath upon the jet black finish coupled with the ebony interior. I had the pleasure of driving this fine machine to my place last night and all I can say is "WOW". BMW hit this SUV (SAV) on the head. It's a car in every way but how it looks. It cornered, braked, accelerated, and handled just like a 3 series. The AWD and lofty ride height just added to the aura.
Onto the interior; I had mentioned it suffered a Massachussetts winter. Well, the overall condition was summed up by "medium soil content". Nothing was that dirty, nor clean. Unfortunately I battled with a bunch of dog hair from the rear seats on back, and with BMW's velcro carpeting, it took about 25 minutes just to vacuum. I was able to get all of the stains and defects out minus a small paint transfer on the driver's inner door near the lower part (white shoes?). My finals for the interior were:
-Vacuum heavily
-Steam clean entire interior via KleenJet Pro Plus 200S (

-CG VRT cut 2.5:1 on mats
-Zaino Z10 on entire interior x 2 (1 at night, 1 in morn)
-Zaino Z14 Plastic Polish on wood grain and clear plastic
-Zaino Z8 on glass
-Zaino Z6 in jams
