My Shark Fin
I owe it to this thread having given me the answer 'Where is my shark fin.'
It could be I had been mislead by on ordering the new X1 facelift model Sept.2012 and on studying all X1 literature, I believed a shark fin is included.
Because every broshure photo showing every X1 with a shot above or at the rear of a car always showed a shark fin in place.
It was only when I arrived home I realised there was no shark fin. Having found no mention of it in sales literature, I googled it and found this thread.
I could only put it down to clever photographic marketing.
Anyway call me vain if you like but for cosmetic reasons only, I paid £114 to have one fitted to my alpine white X1. The cost comprising; The part,preparation,painting,adhesive fixing & labour and as far as I'm concerned worth every penny.
For a car costing thousands, to me it was like spoiling the ship for a halfpence of tar because,looks-wise, it has enhanced the car ten fold.
No regrets,well satisfied.
