I really wish the V8 X5's were available with manuals...

If my trans ever goes out I will see about attempting a 6-speed swap from an 03 540 donor car... even though I have done NO research on that and it probably isn't a possibility so much as wishfull thinking.
But your X looks great, has been well maintained and cared for. The highest mileage one I worked on was a 2002 3.0i X5 with just over 225,000 miles and ran like a champ! Just goes to show how great a vehicle can be if well maintained.
