Farewell E53 ... Going to E70
 
So my journey with my E53, nicknamed "Sharky" has come to an end :(
we had great times together, though sometimes he was heavy on my wallet :rofl:
What made departing earlier than I thought was a leaking transmission heat exchanger that infiltrated my transmission with water... everything was cleaned up, but i was told that it's a matter of time before the trans will go south... so I sold it...
I got the E70, 2008, alpine white on Tobacco... 112K on the ODO, and ready to roll for few years I hope (i barely put 5K each year on the odo, so i hope it won't cost me much in repairs).

The Journey continues, with yet another X5, the one and only King of the road :)

I'm now blessed with an E53 and E70. What engine did you decide on?

It's a 3.0si
My motto is to keep it stock... every penny you spend on mods is a lost penny. keep your green papers for the repairs :)

But all stock and no mods is boring! :)

Congrats on your purchase...
