This is exactly what I'm doing, I have seen so man posts with people complaining about the repair cost of there X5 but if you keep up the preventive maintenance it will save you a fortune. After 100K kilometers your car will need belts & TENSIONER, water pump. transmission., transfer case and diff lube changes plus wheel bearings & maybe front axle/CV joints or check the boots if there perished replace them instantly plus suspension check bushes ect... I'm sure there more but you get what I mean.
I can't find a better car so I'll look after this one!
