Re: Multiple MOT

Well, that turned out to be a bust.

Collision damage to rear bumper. Something has happened to the bonnet - fitted twisted and signs of repair along the front edges. Scratches to the drivers door.

Shame but there are others.

Re: Multiple MOT

Good tip about the tyres, thanks.

Is that for the transfer box wind up? I thought was resolved?

Re: Multiple MOT

Pased them all. Its passed all its MOT's tbf.

In its first 3 years it covered 28 odd K miles. Next 2 years, MOT's a year apart and 16/17k miles covered - pretty consistent mileage over 5 years. Then in 2019 only about 1300 miles and 3 MOT's.

I might be concerened about nothing but it does seem odd.

Multiple MOT

Looking at the cars MOT history, it had 3 MOT's and covered about 1200 miles only in 2019. I've asked questions and am awaiting answers. What are the thoughts on the 3 MOT's? I'd be lying ...

Tbh, the more I look at it, the more it grows on me. Deposit is paid so I guess I'll know when I see it in the flesh.

First X5

Hi All New to the X5 world and am contemplating an SE from a BMW dealer. Thing is, it has American Oak trim which I don't find too offensive but I am wondering what the general consensus regarding this trim finish? I guess what I'm wondering is, if I buy, will it sell on again at a later date. I app...
