My 08 4.8i has approx. 25,000 miles on it. Overall I've been very pleased - in fact pleased to the point that I may buy it when my lease ends in May '11. Having said that, I've had the tranny issues that have been well telegraphed on this forum (i.e. choppy shifting, hesitation, etc.) and the gas mileage is terrible. If I do not buy this car (and keep for 4 more years), I will likely lease a new diesel. The fact that I plan on being in an X5 (either my present one or a new one) for the foreseeable future says something as I'm always looking for something new. Good luck in your decision.
