WTB 2017 or 2018 35d

Crash513 · #1 06-21-2020, 03:20 AM

Hi all. My trusty 2011 X535d is being totaled due to an accident my wife was involved in last week. I've been looking all over for a 2017 or 2018 Diesel to replace it, but they are pretty scarce here in Northern California. I've found a few CPO cars, but not many that are especially well equipped. The car I'm ideally looking for is one like this:

Model: 18XI, X5 xDrive35d

Exterior (1st - 3rd choice): Mineral White, Alpine White, Space Grey
Interior (1st - 3rd choice): Mocha, Terra, Canberra Beige

Must haves:
ZDA Driving Assistance Package
ZDB Driving Assistance Plus Package
ZPP Premium Package
ZCP Cold Weather Package (or 496 Heated rear seats & 248 Heated Steering Wheel)
456 Multi-contour seats

Would be nice:
ZLS Luxury Seating Package
ZPK Parking Assistance Package
ZPX Executive Package (or 323 Soft Close Automatic Doors)
417 Rear manual side window shades

The holy grail:
2VM Dynamic Damper Control + rear axle air

If anyone has or knows of a similar car for sale, I'd love to have a shot at it. If I make a deal on a referal, I will be happy to pay a small finders fee.

TIA

Sounds like your wife is okay.

Good luck on your replacement hunt, took us 6 months to find our diesel equipped just right. Hope you're luckier.

Have a pic of your tii? Always liked 02's. My boss had 5 or 6 of them including one tii he bought new. All roundies.

Thanks. She was a little banged up, but better now.

My '73 2002 tii, before and after. I'm almost to the end of the restoration. Interior, bumpers, reset the back glass and a little electrical and she'll finally be back on the road. Just in time to not go anywhere of course...

That's going to be gorgeous. Is that Calypsorot for the color change?

Thanks. Im really happy with how it looks so far.

The color is actually Graniterot. But it is a lot more metallic and glossy than the factory ever did it. This color was never available on roundies in the US. It came here after '74. But my wilfe loved the color so much we settled on it. New interior is going to be Sahara beige.

Here's a couple of more recent shots.

Looks great with those Alpinas.

Ugh, during a resto on an Inca orange boss had me installing those door /body side bump stops. Worst clips ever. I was always worried they'd fall off as he drove. Never seemed to grab the trim very well. Everything was NOS too so made me even more nervous.
