Up for sale is my e53 X5.
Its got a great spec including panoramic sunroof & full screen satnav, ive fitted a remote start for the webasto. Colour is like a bronzy gunmetal. I had genuine 4.8IS front and rear bumpers fitted and faux 4.8IS tailpipes. I also have copy arch extensions which will be included.
Its got 103k miles and FSH.
Bad point is the drivers wing mirror was hit and now has a matt black cover and is missing the edge that goes around the mirror (will get better pic of that).
I'm looking for £7.5k. Its located in Durham, call me (Jay) on 07896 760 798
I sold the 20" wheels so its running on stock 17s (pics of which i will upload shortly), until then here's what i could look like for you with £750 worth of alloys

Lovely looking car. What make we're those alloys? They really made the car look class.

I think it looked fantastic as it was, surprised you sold the alloys seperatley , it won't have that desired IS look without the alloys.

Alloys were genuine bmw from the next gen x5 i think. Kinda hoping the genuine 4.8 front will be the biggest selling point as it took ages to find. The wheels are all over ebay in any style that takes your fancy
must say that after driving it recently (coming from my navara) it is such an awesome drive and does not feel it's age or mileage

Not looking to buy but looking at your before and now pics it has definitely lost that wow factor.
The 17's look lost with that kit. I know spending money on a car you want to sell is not desirable but really think you should buy some of those 20's again or at least 19's and you will probably sell much easier.

I must say its given me the incentive to get the front valance done & fake imitation tail pipes.

Second this i would not look twice at it now where as before i would of strongly considered losing the wheels was a wrong move to sell it on imo.

Feel for you - great looking car on the 20's and then no takers - plug it on the thread another new forum member has placed an wanted ad for.
