Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection by a BMW specialist to identify hidden issues, especially with the cooling system and transmission.
Check service records meticulously. A well-maintained X5 E53 is crucial for reliability.
Be wary of cheap V8 models; their running costs can quickly outweigh initial savings.
Inspect for rust, particularly on the tailgate and door sills, as it can be a costly repair.
Test drive thoroughly, paying attention to transmission shifts, suspension noises, and any warning lights.
Consider the 3.0d (diesel) for better fuel economy, but be aware of potential diesel-specific maintenance (injectors, turbo).
Factor in a budget for preventative maintenance and potential repairs in the first year of ownership.
