At the 10+ year mark with reselling pricing for hi mileage ones hitting below 10K, my only suggestion is to all owners is to DIY. If you have deep pockets, then go for it and find a BMW E53 knowledgeable INDY, whom you trust.
These are getting cheaper to buy with hi mileage and lots of unknown deferred maintenance. Most are ticking away waiting to go bang. The issues with X5's have been documented to death on this site as have the solutions to these same issues we as owners get to resolve. The knowledge base on this site is priceless.
Buy them and fix them. If not why buy in the first place? Like the style and performance? It all comes at a price. Nothing is free even in a Honda, Toyota, or whatever.
In regards to selling what you have now and going to a snooze of a car, everyone has choices in life to make that will define their auto driving life. Have a Nice Day!
