X5 E70 help

Hi all,

Sorry for writing in English, my Finnish skills are still way too bad

I sold my e92 320d some years ago (and regret it) and now I’m looking for a new car. I found couple 2007 X5s that are reasonable driven (around 160000KM) and look like to be well kept, maintenance book in order, no accidents, etc.

I found some 4.8 V8 and some 3 litters inline 6, all gasoline. After researching a lot online looks like the consensus is that the 3.0 is more reliable than the 4.8. What about consumption, does it change much between them?

Apart form engine, do these cars have any knows issues? What should I be looking for when going to see the cars? I understood the ZF gearbox should have a service at around those Kms. Any specific spot to look for rust?

I would but as a family car so eve if it requires regular preventive maintenance I don’t want something that will let me by the side of the road.

On a side note, do we have BMW specific scanners at our garage?

Any help is highly appreciated.
