[Insane435]

Im in the market to purchase a second car. I currently have the 435msport and am looking to buy something relatively cheap to keep the miles off my 435. I drive at least 25K miles per year.

I went and checked out a 2008 X5 4.8L with 99K miles. The car is listed at $9,995 and is at a used car lot; i know the owner.

Here is what is wrong with the car:
1) needs new radio because it keeps cycling the boot menu for Idrive.
2) The electric trunk is broken and I believe its one of the arms. I can hear the motor click when i push the button.
3) There is a CEL for crankshift position sensor; who knows what this is for..
4) the brake pads seems pretty damn low and there is a clunk on the initial bite. Rotors arent exactly smooth.

His mechanic is supposed to be checking the car out this weekend. What should be looked for? I hope it gets put on a lift and checked for leaks and what not...

Other than that, everything else is minor. The exterior is in really good shape as in the interior. There is one scrape on front bumper and the drivers seat cushion needs replacement or refurbishment.

With all that being said, what price should I offer to get this done? What if he fixes all of these items, what should i shoot for?

Are these cars very problematic and would it be wise to avoid all together?
Please let me know.
