BMW X5 Is Sav E53 2004
$10,400
Description
4.8L iS M-spec 171kms Serviced 1500km ago with good service history Moon roof Aluminium running boards Thule roof racks 20" alloys Full leather interior Parking sensors
I brought this beast as I thought I would be here for the year studying, but plans have changed and I'm going back to sea, not sure on when ll be back so can't justify parking it up. Really really nice to drive!!, door handle is a little sticky and the push buttons on the keyless entry aren't working, interior has been used and sun roof needs front bit held down when closing it.
As said by autocar.uk "Stretching the excellent alloy V8 to 4.8 litres has provided the answer, endowing the iS with near-M5 levels of grunt: 380bhp at 6200rpm and 369lb ft at 3600rpm. BMW?s figures say 62mph arrives in just 6.1sec, which almost certainly means high fives to our 60mph yardstick ? blistering pace by any standards, but quite ridiculous in something that weighs over two tonnes and is tall enough to let you lord it over van drivers
Yet it?s the pseudo-NASCAR growl from the fat rear pipes rather than the speed that leaves the most lasting impression. Blipping the throttle unleashes such a deliciously naughty cacophony of sound that you half expect it to settle back into a lumpy, kidney-haemorrhaging 500rpm idle, like the old Yanks it apes
It?s hard to make a rational case for the 4.8iS, but then to do so would be to miss the point. It?s for people who want not necessarily the best, as the 3.0d is clearly a more rounded car, but the supreme X5. And when cost is no object and logic vanishes, the iS is that car."
Viewing is flexible, I'm based in Browns Bay.
