She's gone

[Helmuth]

Hey guys,

it was a nice time with you !!!!!!!!!!!
It costed me an arm and a leg from a financial standpoint.
I hate the guy who will pickup MY X5 next saturday ..... ;-)

To be honest. I am happy to sell her and I have to admit:

All "standard" problems you can read about here in this forum that could happen to your X5 with "your" manufacturing date will happen - at least they all happened to me.

Your gearbox in a 2002 X5 will break. Believe me. Mine broke twice - second breakdown was "for free" which means you pay "only" EUR 400.- something, not even 10% of the prize of the first change of the gearbox - half a year later.

In summary: a GREAT car, loved to drive it and will in the future have one of the shitty normal ones, FIAT something - not really worth to ask for details. But 14 liters of Diesel in 100km is also something I also need to get rid of.

Good luck everybody. Enjoy your X !!!!!!!!!!

All the best

Helmuth
