I suspected as much. Thanks very much for replying

Weird to reopen this I know, sorry! But I have a brand new Oilybits biodiesel processor that's never been removed from the cardboard packaging it was delivered in. Just never got round to it! Did you sell yours? Wondering if anyone is still...

Yeah. I think if I look at any X5s they will have to be the non M Sport and ideally 18" wheels. Softer ttyres, suspension etc

Sounds right 😂...the x5 is a hell of a good heavy speed tool but off road ...maybe some grass or a gravel track ...thats about it !

Ha. Small wurrld

No way, did you buy that in Cornwall, Redruth area? Could have sworn i saw one just like that for sale a little while back and nearly went to look!

haha, yes i am not fond of cream interior either but would have probably done same if its hse spec! I'd be interested in a brim to brim if you ever do that. And where the fook are the photos? Come on man, all this dribbling for nothing!

Very useful thanks. Interested to hear what mpg is like when you have an idea. Also would be good to know the model/spec etc of the FL2

ok so I collected my fl2 on Wednesday and have been running around in it and here is my initial thoughts... Fl2 is a nicer ride for our crap roads. Fl2 is slower than the x5 40d obviously Engine is louder in side cabin X5 handles better on...

wonder what your thoughts are? I've never even looked over, let alone driven an X5. I am sure it's lovely (owned BMW's when I was younger and bloody loved em). Cheers PS - Sorry for all the messages, wouldn't let me post more than 420 characters

Seems to have been cherished by a knowledgable owner, swirl flap delete. new brakes front and back, new HP Dueller tyres x4. Says it's been loved. £4000. Seems cheap but I know people are struggling to sell so that may not be a red flag. Lot of...

I've just been offered a 2009 X5 M Sport (35D) in black. 145k miles but lot of work done. Complete new suspension, airbags, pipework, compressor. All injectors he said replaced but need to check that as I am told the only proper ones are £1000...

Hiya, really interesting post thank you. I don't want to post this publicly because I suspect people will get funny about Beemer talk on here :D. Curious - you're not in Cornwall are you?

Fuel usage is higher, similar to a D2. Parts are hideously expensive, especially if they have to come from BMW. LR has a large supply of aftermarket parts, BMW not so, so many parts have to come from a dealer. The stupidly wide X5 tyres are...

Huh? Guessing you haven't owned one then, or maybe didn't know where to look? There is a MASSIVE range of "aftermarket" parts for BMW, even from the manufacturers who made the originals: Lemforder, Valeo, Bosch, Bremi, Beru, etc, etc, etc. They...
