I'm on my second one as well. Last one was a 3.0d and the current one is 4.6iS. I got it from MMC in the Boro, don't know if you know the garage. Last X5 had quite a few problems, but the current one seems to be holding out

yeh its that one on mandale triangle oposite machine mart isnt it, they seem to get some nice cars in there, i had a 3.oi now have the 3.0d, i wanted a 4.8is but my head won the argument as i do a few miles as ive had it 2 month and done 5500miles, i did 19000 in the 3.oi in 10 month, but had the car 2 years as my girlfriend used it first and did about 4k in 18 month! is uploading photos easy, ill put some pics up if it is

Thats quite a few miles you put on your cars. Yep MMC is near Machine Mart.
If you follow this link to another part of this forum it explains how to add photos
