Very pleased you have reviewed one of these as I have been looking at old cayenne turbos, this and the ML55 / 63 AMG. The ML55 seems to have the most reliable engine (provably) but as an all round package I think the X5M wins. This also has the all important drop down tailgate. There's always a lot of negative comments on the point of these trucks. If you want some ground clearance, capacity, high up driving position and a very powerful engine.. why not? That's why people buy them, not because they want to use it on track days.

What issues are you having?

Love the car, this generation is my fav.

I think Jay is the funniest car journalist going. 😂😂👏🏽👏🏽 Slyly being put off by the reliability comments. I have a E61 530i with 160k miles and I have spent a fair bit on repairs surrounding gearbox, suspension, wiring etc. But it is wear and tear on an old car with high miles. Premium cars are subject to wear and tear like everything else. So the more u have, the more to go wrong no? But I've found once you do the big jobs you don't have to di them again so it is what it is. I can't imagine the E70 X5M being too different

It always excites me when I get a new video notification 😁...keep up the brilliant content!

There are remaps for these zf units which make the changes a lot snappier. Xhp I believe, the e60 community rave about it anyway!

My dad has a X6M E71 its incredible

While the X5 is probably one of my preferred Toff-Roaders, they're one of those cars where when something goes wrong, it's a hideously expensive go-wrong, the engines are reasonably good if not brilliant, but things like air bags (suspension) and body control module faults are rife and i think probably a reason why you don't see so many for sale as the repairs for those things can be prohibitively expensive

@boogboog8097

True of all of these things.

Perfect review. The "stock" or "separate" exhaust note of the X5M is under all criticism, who wants their 550hp X5 sound like a tuned inline 4? A X-pipe added to the exhaust, which connects the left and right bank cylinders ,makes the exhaust a lot better and it actually does sound like a V8 after that simple mod.

Why should a consumer pay extra after purchasing their car for £100,000 to make it sound good? All BMW's sound horrific and they know it themselves otherwise they wouldnt be pumping fake noise into the cabin

My wife has had a E70 3.0sd for a few years and me coming from a host of 3 series touring's, the X5 still makes no sense. It's a car that feels like it's constantly fighting itself and is a master of nothing but ok in all departments. These can be fussy with wheel alignment but reliability is fine with the usual BMW issues of this era although an X5M would be an entirely different proposition i'm sure. That said, the wife, kids & dog love it so that settles it 😂Top vid sir 👍

I used to really dislike the looks of the E70 X5 M and the F10 M5. I just thought they were way less aggressive than the E60 M5 and the E53 4.8iS X5, but now after a few years I have grown up and now I really appreciate those cars. They are beautiful in their own way, because they don't look so menacing and rude, just more refined and less squarish. Not saying i'm ever gonna forgive BMW for switching the V10 S85 for the V8 S63, but still, those are great cars and should get more respect:

You know people dislike the e60 m5 when it first came out... Its how bmw designs are... People love the old one so much they dont want to see it go. As for V10, they were never a v10 brand and the v10 was extremely unreliable in a sedan... It was fair considering its faster now in the v8,

Probably just needs a new non return valve for to fix window spraying from Halford (small circular thing with two pipe nozzel ends)

Just bought one today! I’m gonna change it against my e92 (330)

I owned one for 6 months and sold it. I bought a hefty 7,000 warranty and even with it i was dipping into my pockets. Every vacuum line changed, rear suspension redone, and was still having errors on heavy load. But, after selling it i do miss it. The power is mesmerizing in an suv. Leaving japense and american sport coupes in the dust at every light was worth the headache.

Jay I owned a x5m. I sold it because it cost too much for maintenance. Also nobody knows this from a regular x5 and bmw started throwing the m sport dressings on the same gen x5. It also didn’t sound special at all like you mentioned

Pester hot hatches, in a straight line, sure, we pestered an RS6 down a very twisty perthshire road in an F15 m50d 😂

I always think the BMW S63B44T engine sounds like a smoother Subaru EJ25. Funny when the equivalent AMG turbo V8s (M157 and the later M177/M178) and Maserati's F154A V8 twin turbos sounds like, y'know, _ACTUAL_ V8. Does unequal length header do that kind of thing to these engines?

Have to disagree about old Cayennes. In my corner of Europe, the only Cayennes that seem to make it past 300.000kms are either the base models with the 3.2 or the 4.5 Turbo models. And there are a lot more of the latter ones, which also boast higher mileages. And because right now there is proper winter with snow, the supply of the 4.5 and 4.8 turbo models available on the market has depleted considerably.

Great review.. Pricey though for an old car getting older.. Also the costs of repairs on these big, heavy older SUVs will be high.. Tyres and brakes will be every 10,000 mile replacements and 20 inch tyres and big discs will be £1500 a year costs (at independant garage prices)... The neighbours will burn down your example if you run those exhausts early in the morning or late at night.. Is the interior also looking too dated no? I think it is for a £20,000+ vehicle.. You'd need to find a sub 50,000 mile immaculate example really.. And one with plenty of nice BMW options...

Can you please review the F85 version?

The seven seat option was never offered on the (proper) M models as it’d upset the weight distribution. Also... why do you refer to the door mirrors as the winged variety? You’re showing your age there mate! Keep up the brilliant work though!!!
