Low mileage X5

I've seen a low mileage X5 for sale. Are there any particular problems with an '03 X5 with only 100 miles driven. I would imagine that the engine should be run on a regular basis. Any input would be much appreciated.

I'd be very wary. That car is 6 years old and has 100 miles, nothing is lubricated in that motor/trans or the rest of the suspension/drive line.

That's exactly what my mechanic said. I think I'll pass and buy one that's still under warranty.

Curious, did you see the car? did it look like 100 miles on it? What was the situation that lead to that few miles?
