Great bus with plenty of space and road presence. From experience the gearbox is the weak point and not cheap to fix when it goes wrong.
Ya I suppose going into x5 ownership with a fear of parts prices wouldn't be a good idea 😂 cut between either an x5 or an e39 530d so well see!! The gearbox is a worry!! 2 grand supposedly for a reconditioned unit fitted correct me if that's wrong?
Think after 04 the rare manual gearbox models are 6 speed.
Supposed to be ok on fuel in manual version.
