Webasto heater

Post by sonny007 » Fri Nov 15, 2013 11:20 pm

Just a general wondering before i get my x5.

How much fuel does the auxiliary heater consume for 15 mins?

Even for a tight Asian it's bearable.  ;)

Virtually nothing.

that's a joke right? you can't be serious - you want to buy an X5 but worry about fuel cost of the WEBO?

bad news!  I spoke with the owner today and he said someone (possibly a dealer)  going round 8am tomorrow morning and has offered 11k cash :axe: :hypo:
The owner lives in america, so I've been communicating with his mother. The mother sounded genuinely upset as she wanted me to have the car. But anyway, the owner said if i can match the price then i can have it. I initially offered him 9k, but managed to get another grand and i increased offer to 10k (the car is advertised for 11k but he dropped to 10 whe  he called me on Thursday).  I really hope this dealer dosnt but it, cos i really want that x5. Very seldom you come across such a high spec x5  :'(

Fingers crossed  :'( :'( :'(

Good luck, if it's meant to be it will happen. Shame you offered a grand more. Now you'll have paid that much more - should've waited for the dust to settle tomorrow. Went with your heart didn't you!  :))
