I recently picked up a F15 after selling my E53 (which incidently was a great car and still in the family). In the process of making some changes to the interior and Head unit upgrade.

Re: Rear Camber and toe bolts

Agree, go to an indie. First of all they have the knowledge and gear to sort this issue out. Tried one of the so called national companys to sort out the alignment on the E53 and they sorted the front and exactly the same issue as you for the rear. Took the car back to my Indie and he sorted them no...

Re: E53 rare?

Tried all sorts of tyres on mine and found the 19" suited her best especially with motorways. Had a set of 18" for offroad and winter which worked well, in the rough stuff. Think i still have a set of winter alloys at the house down south, will have to have a look when next down.

Re: E53 rare?

Keep her well maintained and she will serve you well. Only thing i will say is to keep an eye on the back tyres (alignment). This need attention if like me you do a lot of motorway miles.

Cheers,

Pete
