Genuine Alpina alloys, I think I'd get a better swap from the X5 than I will with my 5er.

Sounds like you're pretty much decided then ;)

6 hours drive, and money for fuel which I haven't got though (seriously when I said I've been wiped out, it's big style).

Sounds to me like it's not the right time to be taking a risk, TBH.  :-/

No mate, decided with my head rather than heart, it's too far, and too much of a risk to go all that way.

Agreed, what you already have should be the easier sale

it will sell..
X5 definitely not good on fast curves so not like your 5 series..
really heavy on fuel..
not practical in traffic jams..

its comfy, high in sitting position, repairs bloody expensive..

outside the roads they are  [smiley=thumbdown.gif]

really fast on a straightline but can you stop  ;D

you decide..
