Hi all my name is Christian and I'm from Kent

Would have to be a x5 typhoon 4.8 .... To get the kids to school on time

Right guys and girls I have had the 735 V8 e65 for six months now and thought it was time i compared it to the X5 4.6 e53 which it replaced .... the following are all my opinion not what it says on paper :-) Performance ...... The Performance of the X5 was far more raw and existing and pulled away like a hot hatch been stolen from a car park even at speeds of 100mph if you put your foot down in the X5 it still took off and reached 130 + in the blink of an eye .... Economy ... Keep this short cos if you moan about how much petrol you use get a smart car lets just say the 7 series in a little bit better on juice .. Comfort .. The X5 was a very comfy ride bit hard on the suspension but the cream leather was soft and all in all a nice drive .. The 7 series however is like driving your favourite arm chair with the comfort pack even the hunch back of nochrodamb could get the seats to his liking . When I bought it the drive home was 400 miles + without a stop and it felt like I popped down to tesco 7 series wins on this one hands down. Value for money Both the X5 and the 7 series were of the same year 2002 when new I think the X5 was a bit more money than the 7series as it was a carbon ltd eddition . A couple of members have seen both the cars in question and I'm sure will agree they were / are in fantastic condition. But the 7 series came with its original bill of sale £57,000 I paid £3,800 now that in my eyes is value for money for a second hand car that's done 84,000 miles with a full history .. My verdict Love the 7 series but miss showing the boy racers that at 44 years old they ain't gonna beat me away from the lights !!!!

The best and most subtle thing I did to the X5 was the one off special order solid chrome mesh grill inserts I think they looked ace

Hi mate that was next in my list of things to do on mine before the gearbox went !Removed! up so never looked into the price of these sorry I can't be of too much help but keep us posted on this as info would be of help to all new members

Hi mate the 4.6is and 4.8is E53 have a factory body kit and wide arches maybe see if you can find simeone breaking one

Mine went at 95,000 and was told by BMW macanic I was lucky to get that out of it also rear subframe bushes only have an 85,000 life span so check to make sure these have been done as that's can be a £450 job sorry to be negative but I found out the hard way and ended up selling a X5 that I paid 10k for to the polish for 4k

Hi mate and welcome can't help with the egr issues but can say I had the 4.6 v8 and was getting about 15 mpg now have a 3.5 7 series and get 28 to 30 mpg
