I would assume that is because the E70 require so much more than the E53 X5 in terms of maintenance. Most of the time these vehicles are not taken care of the way that they should and as they approach 100K every single gasket seems to shit out within 20K of each other. Plus needing the fluid changes, plugs, coil packs, water pump etc....not to mention the insane amount of Tech on the E70's, the E53 is simple by comparison. Plus the market is saturated with E70's, E53's not so much.
