Test drive
I test drove this 2004 4.8 Woodbridge X5 about three weeks ago. Looked clean. Lots of aftermarket additions, some very nice, some not so much - air filter (good), BSW subwoofer (good), second spoiler (bad), tow hitch (good), dark window tinting (bad), weathertech floor mates (good). However, its had three previous owners. Also, I took the X5 on Rt 95 and dove it hard. When driving over 70, hard breaking caused the front wheels to shimmy to the point of making it difficult to maintain control. It could be the control arms, ball joints, maybe rotors. But with the high mileage and the number of owners, my gut told me to avoid it. I did. I'm still looking. It did look clean though.
