I have 110,000 miles on an X I bought new. At around 75,000 I made the decision I would keep mine and go through the mile range where more parts wear out. This is not unique to the X5--stuff just wears out after several years and thousands of miles.
At 100,000 miles I would have a very thorough inspection done to get a read on the state of repair of your vehicle and take a look at the 100,000 mile maintenance check list to see what BMW suggests be done. With that information you can make a more informed decision. While the previous owner took great care of the vehicle he may not have begun to replace the common wear items that at 100,000 miles are due or coming due soon.
From what I have read, I have had far fewer problems than most. I am very satisfied with cost of maintenance and repairs.
