Really?? why would you want a manual.  Awful in an X5.  Stick to auto all the way.

Nearly didn't comment as mindful this is an advert thread but feel need to comment that others have prior posted  and indicated being happy owning a manual. Can't give comparative opinions as haven't driven a manual X5 yet.

A few months ago I genuinely might have considered viewing this myself.

Out of curiosity did you fully sort/improve the minor issues mentioned in prior posts ?

Sounds well maintained - miles not an issue on these if cared for. Re the wobble/shimmy I would also check the thrust bushes.......(the ones at rear of the front wishbones).

It's exactly the sort of car i was looking for but a bit over my price range I think. Whats the tax on these?

tax should be £280- you need a facelift, lots of improvements over the pre facelift imo

Si list the options specifically buddy. The op is too vague. State the rear screens are extra, what they're connect to, how that works, headphones, no headphones. Leather, running boards, 6 speed box, filter/oil changed, heated front seats, electric is standard in the sport, full history or not, breather changed, other extras - what sets this bugger apart from the usual crowd and all that.

Best of luck of course!

Sorry si I wasn't suggesting it was overpriced mate just a little bit more then I think I can afford right now which is a shame as it looks a well kept motor and you're quite local aswell.
Not sure how the fuel would be compared to my vxr even on a diesel one of these, insurance is dearer aswell but they hold their value well.

What sort of mpg you getting mate?
Not that's it's a massive issue. Lucky if I get 28-29 in the vxr and then I only get about 300-350 miles to a tank
