I'd never encountered such a great specification on an E70 which is why I bought it over 2 years ago - this is the 2007 SE Dynamic which became the M-Sport from 2008 onwards - therefore it has the M-Sport arches, staggered 20" wheels, suspension but with the bonus of retaining the black Shadowline window trims rather than chrome.

I’d never encountered such a great specification on an E70 which is why I bought it over 2 years ago – this is the 2007 SE Dynamic which became the M-Sport from 2008 onwards – therefore it has the M-Sport arches, staggered 20″ wheels, suspension but with the bonus of retaining the black Shadowline window trims rather than chrome. On top of this, its has the BMW Comfort® package which include air-cooled massaging front seats, heated rear seats, keyless entry and a heads-up windscreen display.
This is my 5th X5 in 20 years, 3 of these were E53, the last 2 were E70. All of these cars have proved to be superb family cars in terms of excellent build quality and reliability, reasonable running costs and all round ability. As I approach 60 years of age and the kids are grown up, the need for a large SUV has gone and I’ve downsized to an X3.
Please use the private plate N111 PDA to check the car’s history although the car will return to it’s original plate when sold which is YK07 PDV.
