BMW X5 Used Car Review

BMW's reputation for building engaging driver's cars meant it probably shouldn't have been a surprise when it set the standard for SUV handling with its first effort, the 2000 X5. Over two successive generations, it has grown in size, added a third-row option (since 2007), and introduced a rear-wheel-drive variant (since 2013). One of BMW's biggest-selling models, the X5 range covers a broad spectrum of engines including an eco-focused hybrid and performance-biased M model.

Pros

Cons

  • One of the best SUVs to drive in terms of handling
  • Wide range of engines from economical 4-cylinder diesel to powerful V8
  • Cabin and boot space further enlarged with third generation (2013 on)
  • Intuitive and smartly presented iDrive infotainment system
  • Latest X5 doesn't ride or steer as well as previous generations
  • Interior has improved though has yet to set any segment benchmark
  • Limited boot space with seven-seater option
  • Bulkier, US-focused styling of current model

This 2002 BMW X5 has a strong 255.0kW 2.9 litre engine. I've owned it most of its life (it had one previous owner; log books are available) and it has been well maintained by a trusted local mechanic. It has registration until June 12 – which is why I've dropped the price; I don't want to pay another registration, since we already bought its replacement – and has never been in so much as a fender bender. The scratch you see in the imperfections image was there when I bought it in 2010. It has

I am the 2nd owner, having bought it off the original owner in 2022. With only 160,000 klms it will be good for another 150,000-200,000 klms. 90% of its use has been driving up the lower North Shore in Sydney. It is in immaculate condition and has always been garaged and serviced regularly. The reason for selling is that we are returning to Europe for an extended time. I am sure it will be the best X5 on the market in this price range. Any form of inspection is welcome.

WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR: BMW X5 (2013 ONWARDS)

Like any quasi off-roader, the X5 needs a close check to make sure it hasn't been driven in inappropriate terrain.

Luckily, most of them were used as family cars, and that's the one you want to buy provided the interior hasn't been trashed by kids, dogs and mountain bikes.

Mechanically, the big thing to watch out for is an engine that has experienced patchy maintenance.

The VANOS variable valve-timing arrangement in the engine is one of the things that gives the X5 its performance, though skipped oil changes can lead to dirty oil that will clog the delicate little oilways that operate the system.

If the VANOS hardware quits, it's big dollars to fix.

Check for oil leaks anywhere around the VANOS actuators (at the front of the engine) for signs of oil weeping, which can be (but isn't always) the first sign of trouble.
