I think it's pretty good, but IMO they shouldn't have taken a picture of the iDrive screen that has the message "Engine malfunction! Reduced power."

I'm no expert on the E70, but a random ballpark figure would be $65k. I'd take a drive and look at the service history first though. A car with that many error messages could mean fidgety electronic gremlins and sensors that could prove to be a headache later on.

At the BMW Ultimate Drive, one of the X5s I drove had an oil sensor that refused to shut up. It had many messages that would not be extinguished, from "low oil pressure" to "check oil level" to a full red "Engine oil critical! Do not continue to drive." Yeap. 1st year gremlins.
