Newbie with questions.

Hello all. After a horrible experience with an '09 ML350 thought I'd come back to the X5. Looking at one in particular, and just a few questions.

Seem like a good deal? 2008 3.0si with 45,000 miles, new brakes and tires, alignment, serviced with new oil and air filters. One owner car with clean service history and carfax and looks like new, inside and out. No nav or backup camera though. 2 months left on factory warranty. $31,000

I had a great local mechanic do a PPI on it. He found the radiator had a minor leak, as did the valve cover gasket. The dealer agreed to replace with a new radiator and valve cover gasket.

I remember the radiator and cooling system to be the achilles heel of my '03 v8 X5. Is that the case with the newer model as well?
