I'm glad to be here, just purchased a very well maintained '05 X5 with the 3.0 six. 290,000 miles, original motor and trans. no major repairs (yet!). I live in the tidewater area of Virginia, USA. Looking forward to helping where I can. I've done a lot of work on my own cars. Mostly Benz for the last several years. Looking forward to hitting the half million mile mark with my X5!
