Opinions on Used X5

First Post. I have been in the market for an X5 for around 3-4 months now. I think I may have found the one. It is about 15,000 miles more than I had hoped to get, but I think it is a great deal. Please forward your honest opinions.

2015 BMW X5 with M Sport Package and Third Row for $16,500 at 101k miles.

Auto Report shows it spent most of its life in Nevada, which is good in regard to the worry of deep rust.

The dealer is down the street from a BMW Dealership, where I plan to have the vehicle inspected prior to purchase.

With it having 100k miles, I plan on immediately doing Front and Rear Diff and Transmission Fluid/Filter when we get it home, along with Engine and Cabin Filters and an Oil Change.

Any advice or direction is appreciated. Apologies if this is the wrong thread.

Thanks,

I would do a hard pass on this vehicle. Two accidents. One of moderate damage and on of unknown damage. You can find a better X5 out there.

The accidents would also be my concern.

I paid $16,100 for mine, but it's not the Sport.

I've just recently faced the same decision - see my comments in the below linked thread:

I am with the rest of the team, for me the no-go criteria is the not 1, but 2 accidents with one being moderate. Recommend continue to search.
