Re: Possible new E70....

Hmmm will pop them an email to see if they can be a bit more specific on what needs doing....

Wonder if they would ever give the name of the last owner??  Just to see if I could try and make contact with them? I mean id get to see the v5 anyway when I bought it?

Possible new E70....

Hi, So I think we have found a potential X5 that ticks most of the boxes, I know that comfort seats would have been nice... but they are few and far between. Anyway this one is an 09 plate with 114k ... It's a one owner and I've got all the vin number and number plate to check mot history and spec e...
