thanks for your reply i appreciate it. the only thing that is kind of puting me off going for one is for the money i have to spend it looks like it will have done 100k if noot over that. Are there alot of common problem that i may have or are these engines bullet proof?

just signed up as i am thinking of buying an x5 once i sell my current car basically i feel like i want a 4x4 for a change. I would very much appreciate if you all could help me with my choice. i will be after a 3l diesel in auto so what can i expect to pick up for roughly around £7000?
