E70 X5 m50i and variants (TT V8)

[FourPointEight-is]

Hi

Truth be told I am getting sick of my 4.8 -just about every 'common fault' possible has happened to it. Starting to think I got a bit of a lemon.

Anyway...

I have been eyeing up some 50i that are for sale nearby.

I have searched this forum but I cant really find many threads about them. There are several threads about people discussing brand new cars but id be looking at a 2010 model year or if I can find something in my budget a 2011/2012.

Anyone here have a 'high mile' twin turbo X5? How is it treating you?

I will be opting for an extended warranty, and this wont be my primary car so I'm not too fussed about it breaking but I'd start to get fucked off if it started most of its time in the shop as the 4.8is does.
