Hi

I am thinking about selling my X5 and would really appreciate some advice please!

1. The mileage is 98k. Am I right in thinking that if I am to sell I should do it before I reach 100k?
2. What do you think the car is worth if I sold it maybe next month (please see below for all the information). Mileage will still be 98k.
3. If I kept it for a few months longer in to 2017 and it was over 100k what would it worth then?
4. I am thinking about a 7-Series. Now the children can do up their seat belts on their own (I no longer have to reach in and bend down) I am thinking a regular car will be more comfortable. I would like a model that has a suspension upgrade for more comfort. There are so many names, does anyone know what is might be called? Is it Active Suspension/Adaptive Drive or something?

Thanks for the help and advice!

Sally

I bought it Sept-2012 as an AUC from BMW Dealership
Full BMW Service History

98k miles
3 former owners
19" with Michelin Latitude Diamaris

I also have the official BMW (Mondial) Comprehensive Warranty which I pay by direct debit. I bought this when the AUC warranty ran out. I am guessing this is attractive to a buyer? I think I pay £70 a month and this includes their Breakdown Assist cover.

Take a look on Autotrader. Find other similar cars to yours and price it accordingly. If you believe your car has something that would make it slightly more attractive to a buyer, try adding on a few quid.

Oh - and don't advertise it for less than mine (see below) - your not the only person trying to sell around here, you know!!!

ps - good luck if you do decide to advertise it.

How did you get on? Was Autotrader the best place to sell? Cheers, David
