Hello. Just wandering over from the Chimaera forum, so don't let them know I'm here!

I've been pondering getting an X5, but can't find anything on them in the forums. Somebody here must have one, and be able to give me some feedback... I'm after a diesel, but not sure what the difference is between the sport and non-sport model, and could do with some advice on which options are the must-have's. Also, what's considered a 'too high' mileage (I presume, being German, they're good for a very high mileage). I guess £20K is the max I want to pay (poss px with my TVR) so what year would I get? All help appreciated!

Cheers, Toby

You will find the sources for the answers you want on:

www.x5world.com (for details on the X5, options and any issues)

www.bm3w.co.uk (lots of information from UK owners who've bought X5 3.0ds - see the X5 forum)

www.bmw.co.uk/apm/bmw_auc/ (run a search to see the values of X5 diesels sold through the dealer network) £20k sounds a bit low to me, but have a look and see.
