Buying a high performance vehicle like X5M for 10% of what it cost new, what do you expect?

I have always said, either pay up front and drive a nicer, well maintained car or buy cheaper (pay later) and have nothing but headaches .....There's no way around it.

There's a reason why you were able to score this M for $10,000 but at least you have some extra cash (hope) to get it running now.

These are great vehicles once sorted out but they'll keep squeezing your pockets though
