http://www.gumtree.co.za/a-cars/ilembe-dolphin-coast/x5-4-8is-+-immaculate/1001001988250910008857909

guys im a bit nervous. does anybody know this car? im about to fly down to KZN to take ownership. ill only sign on the dotted lines once i see it in the flesh.
full dealer service history, one owner since new, motorplan clean, no comments.
is there anybody who leaves nearby who can check it for me or who can vouch for it?
ive made peace with the dark side if this beast (fuel).

on the other side...

a 2007 E70 3.0si (R10000 more than the 4.8is) in a good condition. both cars have similar mileage. also full service history and clean motorplan. not fully loaded with features but does have panaromic roof and Navigation. not sure with fuel figures on this one.

what to do?

Beautiful car ...... The 4.8is is a machine ..... Test the sunroof, adjustable suspension etc ..... Most of all, ENJOY !!!

:fencelook: very nice

The 4.8is looks stunning

Bigger is better....

If everything checks out with the V8...go for it:thumbs::thumbs:

IF the 4.8 is well cared for... its a no brainer...

4.8is for the win!! What a machine!!!

4.8is :thumbs:

Having owned both platforms (E53 and E70), but with different engines, getting behind the wheel of the E53 still feels a bit nicer. E53 4.8is WILL feel and sound special to drive - it's the ///M car equivalent of the E53 range.

4.8IS!!:rollsmile: The first time you drive it the sound of that V8 will put a massive smile on your face!!:thumbs:

4.8is raise:
