2006 Bmw X5 4.8is on 2040-cars
McLean, Virginia, United States
|
I purchased this car from another BMW enthusiast in Charlotte, NC just shy of 50,000 right here on Ebay. See my feedback dated 14 April 2011. The car is in overall great condition and I think anyone that views the car would agree. Reason for the sale is to upgrade to a larger SUV. I'm a typical American that hauls around kids and crap and just wants something along the size of a Tahoe. Car is fully loaded with comfort seats, heating steering wheel, heated rear seats, pano roof among the other stock options the 4.8is came with. Overall this car has been extremely reliable which is contrary to popular belief. Outside of standard services and fixing known problems with these cars (air struts, ps hoses) it's been a fantastic car.
Interior is in excellent condition. Only flaw I can really point to is the steering wheel trim is peeling which is fairly standard on these cars. I have the OEM BMW trim piece already and it will be passed along to the new owner. The navigation screen has a few smudges but nothing that affects the viewing while the car is on. You can only see them when the screen is dark. Leather is in great condition and shows very little wear. Carpet is clean, no stains, rips or tears. Exterior is also extremely well kept. The car has never been in an accident or had any paint work done. There is a small dent in the driver's side rear passenger door the size of a penny. It can easily be removed with PDR. There are a couple of nicks near the rear tailgate and bumper area but you have to be up close to see them. The wheels have some minor curb rash as well. Tires are fairly new Continental Extreme DWS. Mechanically the car has been serviced with the BMW dealer up until the factory warranty expired. I have the BMW service bulletin printout which shows everything handled while under factory warranty. Since I have owned the car it has been serviced at my local indy shop. I have all the service records and will also provide those to the new owner. Various repairs include both front air struts, power steering hoses, CAB's, Front Rotors & Pads. Known Problems • Valve cover gaskets are starting to seep. No major leaks and I am not topping off the oil, but they should be done in the next 5-10k miles. I would also suggest plugs at this time. • Rear brakes are almost to the wear sensor. The car is for sale in as-is condition, with no warranties included or implied. Again, it has been a great car and I would not hesitate to drive this car anytime or anywhere. This was a late 06 build date which is typically when BMW gets its act together and addresses common faults found in earlier builds. The car is clean and sitting in the garage awaiting a new owner. I'm happy to pickup the buyer at Dulles Airport or assist with shipping the vehicle. |

BMW i3 REx rated at 117 MPGe, 39 mpg with 72-mile EV range
Thu, May 22 2014The numbers haven't made their digital way to the EPA's website yet, but we can now confirm that the BMW i3 with range extender will be officially rated at a combined 117 MPGe with 39 mpg once the battery runs out. That puts the amazing little city car just ahead of the pure-electric Fiat 500e (116 MPGE, combined) and behind the Honda Fit EV (118) and the Chevy Spark EV (119). In the plug-in hybrid category, it's at the top of the class, beating out the Honda Accord PHEV, which is rated at 115 MPGe but is also a much bigger vehicle. The i3 REx also has an official all-electric range of 72 miles and can go another 78 on gas (for a total of 150). When it's not carrying around the extra fuel tank and engine, the all-electric i3 gets 124 MPGe (combined), which is the currently the highest in the US. The i3 EV also has an all-electric range of 81 miles. BMW expects to deliver the first i3 REx in the US this week and delivered the first all-electric version earlier this month. There was a bit of a hold-up on the range-extender version thanks to a delay with getting these EPA numbers. Now that all the bureaucratic boxes have been checked, it's off to customer driveways they go.
BMW Concept 90 Motorcycle debuts at Villa d'Este
Fri, 24 May 2013The Concept 90 is one of two new vehicles BMW is showing off at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este on the tony shores of Lake Como in Italy. This year is the 90th anniversary of BMW Motorrad and the 40th anniversary of the R 90 S (inset) - the first production motorcycle to come with a front fairing - and BMW has worked with custom bike builder Roland Sands Design to craft a homage to the Daytona Orange boxer from the Seventies.
While following the line of its forbearer, obviously the Concept 90 has been sexed and sleeked up. The bodywork is of hand-worked aluminum, the giant halogen lamp of the 1975 model (which is when Daytona Orange was introduced) has gone LED, and the front engine cover, valve covers, exhaust and wheels have been made with a contrast-cut milling process.
For a finer description of the Concept 90 check out the press release below, or skip the words and go straight to the high-res images above.
Check out the trick way you access the tire valve on this BMW Alpina B6
Wed, 22 Oct 2014The wheels are one of the first things you notice when checking out the 2015 BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe. The 20-inch aluminum alloy rollers have 21 spokes that spray out from their hubs, creating one of Alpina's signature design features. But there's also plenty of function to go along with the stylistic form of this hotted-up BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe.
By rotating the Alpina roundel and unlocking the center hub, you gain access to the tire valve and bolts, which are hidden inside. They're literally kept under lock and key, and they protect your Alpina's wheels from the elements and theft. This unique center-fill system employing a hollow spoke isn't a new setup for the favored BMW tuner, but since Autoblog had one in our offices this week, we thought we'd take the opportunity to show the unique mechanism in case you haven't seen it before. Check it out in our brief video below.
