Hi guys. After 8 months of owning my my54 3.0d I have decided to move it on and buy a new car. I've really gotten used to the higher up driving position so another 4x4 is on the cards. Having looked at a few options, Cayenne, Range Rover, Touareg etc I really can't see past the X5 so I'm looking for another. This is where I get a bit picky  ) I'm after, in no particular preference, 4.8is with lpg any colour but black, (would consider 4.6is) or a facelift e53 3.0d in either imola red or estoril blue with sat nav. After searching I am aware these are fairly rare to come by via the usual channels eBay, Gumtree etc. If anyone knows of any for sale please point me in the right direction. Any help appreciated. Budget ~£8k. Thanks

Visually Stunning 2 owner low miler rare imola red 4.8is on ebay as of yesterday albeit a little over budget and absent of LPG (I probably couldn't bring myself to do it to that advertised car). I suspect it will sell fairly soon but I may be wrong.

Seen the very one your on about, absolutely stunning. They look excellent in Imola Red.i think I have my heart set on one, probably going to wait until I can up my budget slightly and go for one that ticks every box.

Haven't seen the car I mentioned in the metal or scrutinised the paperwork but from the pics and listing it ticks near every box. It's seemingly a very clean 2 owner car with lowish mileage offered by a private seller not asking daft money.

You could wait a year or 2 maybe longer to find similar again I can assure you.
