Re: x3 buying advice
Sorry cant help with any specific advice so it's a cae ofd checking everything as with any used car. The prefacelift cars where criticised for suspension and ride so I would drive sport and non sport models before deciding. Black examples look less dated as facelift brought colour coded bumpers.

If you're still looking then watch for tyres. If it's got staggered wheels the tyres must be star marked (OEM spec) or you run the risk of 'winding up' the transfer box as the front and rears will be travelling at different speeds.
