I replace my wife's car about the same age, so every 18 months it is either my wife's car or my car that is being replaced with a new vehicle.
The new X5 cost is pretty close to $140k on road and the towbar still has to go on it.
The current 2004 X5 Diesel Sports with 19" wheels I have is also well optioned up and has a Front & Rear Spoliers on it from the 4.6is sports. It cost around $135k on the road, plus I had a towbar fitted, so the pricing of the new X5 has not realy increased that much.

Just was wondering how many kms you did the in the old X5 and what sort of tradein price they gave you...?
Yes, with gradual spec increases, the pricing hasn't gone up all that much really. I bought a diesel new in 03 and with only SatNav, Bluetooth, Tint, rear side window blinds and a CD stacker (LOL - not needed now), it was just under $100k OTR.
I remember it cost me $50k OTR for a base 318i Auto (options of electric windows and sunroof only) back in 1991 - a new 320i isn't a lot more now and back then you didn't even get ABS !
