Looks like a nice SE. Was not aware that the back was not colour coded though?

[X5Sport]

Very nice..... Age, Spec? In the E70 forum obviously, otherwise I'll get shouted at by sir again...

Looks good

I'm now leaning towards an SE for my next one. Those unfinished bumpers will come in handy in Brighton with all the clowns that can't parallel park!

No, you'd still prefer an Mpsort, just like mine!

Only if you take mine as part-ex

Anyway, we must be due a Sussex meet soon so I can kick its tyres

Not much to tell. Its fully loaded as most seem to be. Maybe its an ex-demo as it its an early model. Has parking camera and sensors which is strange, I have only ever had that on my Vogue SE. The dealer had over 40 x5's in stock. The fill colour coded m-sport looked prettier but lack of side steps and harder suspension means it was not an option. Plus it seems the 6 seat option is like hens teeth.

Just for clarification, this car wont be for me, its my old mans, he saw my E53 (actually the wifes) and so went to buy one, it was only and extra £8,000 to get a good E70 so he went that route. I am also tempted to get a similar one but I'd be lying if I said I found the E70 better looking. I still think the best X5 on looks alone is the E53 facelift.

In any case I have about 4 weeks to give it a full test before the car gets sent to its new home, my dads place in a mountainous village in sunny Cyprus

Where from?

[quote=""535dboy""]Where from?[/quote]


Its called Big Motoring World in Kent.

They boast something like 500 cars in stock, all BMW's. Gotta say i haven't a clue how they make a penny, the 2 times I went there we were the only customers there. Plus the other irritating thing is they deont give a penny discount but worst of all you have to sit in their office and give all your details over before they'll even let you near the car.

You obviously didn't Google Big Motoring World then. They have a less than sparkling reputation amongst the BMW fraternity. Let's hope you got a good one.

That is why I asked the Q - the clue was over 40 X5s

Do a search

I have never used them but have heard some horror stories but can't of course confirm if they are justified

[535dboy]

Btw - assuming that is a dynamic pack (wheels give it away) then it will have the same bumpy ride as the m sport

Do those particular 20's alloys usually mean the Dynamic pack was added 535? Good to know.
