Paulpen is on a distinguished road
Put my name down for one at last :)

Found myself an X5 at last - or more suprisingly it found me via where I work !

Considering I originally wanted a prefacelift 4.4 or 4.6 in black ive ended up with a Gray 4.8 facelift

It does have some noticable and some niggly issues that ill need to sort out before its gets driven but hoping they are nothing too bad - could be a risk or an opportunity

From what I know its got the following issues :
One remote wont unlock the doors but will start the car
The drivers front window is a bit noisy and slow in operation
There are a coule of buttons missing from the AC panel and the pixes are going funny
The passenger side rear suspension is low
The parking sensors just beep and flash when you push the button
A few small oil mistings above and below the engine

Other than that it seems pretty good and with low miles and service history it was too good an offer to turn down - only time will decide if its a good move !

Better get finding me a friendly forum , a workshop manual and some tinkering time !
