2010 Bmw X5 Xdrive30i Sport Utility 4-door 3.0l Excellent Cond. Dark Gray on 2040-cars
Half Moon Bay, California, United States
|
The car was owned by 82-year old man who had hip surgery about six months after purchasing it new. After this, he was never able to drive it again and was only driven by 24/7 caretaker (with owner as passenger) to go shopping once or twice a week and run errands. It was always garaged and properly maintained. The owner passed away and we have no need for this vehicle.
I'm not a BMW expert but I'm an engineer. I went through everything I could think of and I believe this car is in excellent condition. Non-smoking household. No small children and only one pet which went to the Vet once or twice a year. All tires were recently replaced so it no longer has the original run-flat tires. Thus I believe the new owner might want to consider purchasing a spare. As stated, the car is still under the original 50K/5yr warranty The following is from the manufacturer, I removed the irrelevant bits: The 30i is powered by a 3.0L inline 6-cylinder engine making 260 horsepower. The engine has sophisticated design features, including aluminum and magnesium construction and Valvetronic, which controls and varies valve lift to deliver full power when needed yet otherwise allows increased efficiency and smoothness. All X5 powerplants are mated to an advanced 6-speed automatic that drives all four wheels.The X5 is built with a very stiff body structure and has a 4-wheel independent suspension, including a double-wishbone setup in front and a multi-link arrangement in back; the system is oriented toward a good ride and crisp handling on the road, yet it has the ruggedness for occasional light off-roading. The optional active steering system adjusts the effective ratio of the steering such that at low speed the steering wheel only needs to be turned twice to go from lock to lock, yet at high speeds the system has a long ratio for good stability. The system interfaces with BMW's AdaptiveDrive--part of the optional Sport Package--to coordinate the steering system's operation with active roll stabilization and electronic damping control. Brakes, too, are improved, with huge 15.6-inch 4-piston rotors up front and 15.2-inch in the rear.All X5 models come with xDrive, a full-time all-wheel drive system that normally sends 60% of engine torque to the rear wheels but using a multi-disc clutch can steplessly vary torque to the front wheels, sending more as needed. XDrive interfaces with the stability control system to enhance handling safety.The X5 comes with two rows of seating for a total of five adults. Has optional 4-zone climate control system. A new revised version of the standard dynamic stability control (DSC) now includes brake fade compensation, brake stand-by and brake drying, to help increase overall brake safety in a wide range of conditions, plus the Start-off Assistant, which helps keep the vehicle from rolling backward when starting from a stop and facing uphill. Hill descent control helps modulate speed during steep descents off-road or on slippery surfaces. A trailer stabilization program is also included.The X5 comes with a range of safety features, including advanced dynamic stability control and a rollover sensor that interfaces with the vehicle's air bag system. Front seat-mounted side air bags and a head-protection system for all outboard occupants are also standard. Climate control, navigation and entertainment functions, among others, are accessed through the BMW's second-generation iDrive controller, which now includes iDrive logic and hard drive. The Technology package includes a rear view camera, park distance control and voice-activated navigation. So here is list of what's up for bidding: 1) Car (front and rear climate control, rear view camera, navigation package and everything in the blue text above) 2) One electronic key. I can't find the other one but when I find it I will send it. I haven't had time to go through the house completely. 3) Owner's manual I have the carfax report. eBay makes it difficult to put a link so just email me and I will send you the link. You're welcome to test drive the vehicle provided you have a valid driver's license. I went to edmunds.com and kbb.com to price this vehicle. I believe $28K is a very fair starting price. I'll be glad to answer any questions. Thank you for your time. |

Watch this BMW take flight at Viru Rally
Mon, 20 Oct 2014An E36 BMW 3 Series might be a good choice for a lot of purposes - a long road trip, a track day, rallycross, impressing your friends... but a full-on rally? It's rear-drive when the best rally machines are front- or all-wheel drive. But that didn't stop Pritt Koik and Alari-Uku Heldna from entering their stripped-out E36 in the Viru Rally in Estonia... or from getting some big air time when they did.
Fortunately the jump was not just caught on video... it was caught on video from three angles: two from the side of the rally stage and one from inside the cockpit. Check out all three below to see how this particular BMW got back into the aircraft business.
Researchers halfway to cutting carbon fiber costs by 90%
Wed, 15 Oct 2014Carbon fiber has been utilized for decades to build racecars, as a means to cut weight while maintaining strength. But until recently, the space-age material has been largely absent from the street on anything but supercars because of the expense to use it. Recently, BMW signaled a major shift in that trend when it starting using carbon fiber reinforced plastic panels on the i3 and i8. This relatively small scale start might be just the beginning; the German company believes that a breakthrough to inexpensively manufacture the lightweight stuff is just on the horizon.
MAI Carbon Cluster Management GmbH counts BMW, Audi, Airbus, the German government and many other organizations as supporters, and it's researching how to make carbon fiber cheaper to produce, according to Automotive News Europe. The company thinks it can reduce costs by 90 percent in the near future. "We've certainly reached a halfway point on our cost-cutting target for suitable carbon-fiber parts," said project head Klaus Drechsler to Automotive News Europe.
Unfortunately, it isn't entirely clear just what MAI Carbon is doing to make such a huge leap possible. However, a recent post on the company's website talks about a new form a carbon fiber using a thermoplastic matrix that could be cured in less than three minutes. That's compared to about 90 minutes in the traditional process with an autoclave.
Thermal imagery of BMW M4 DTM pit stop is red hot
Wed, 28 May 2014A pit stop is a pit stop, right? The race car pulls in, the crew changes the tires, pumps in some fuel, maybe swaps out a busted body panel or squeegees the windshield, and off it goes for another heat. Only pit stops have become the focus of news lately for a number of reasons, whether it's because of mishaps (like the ones that prompted F1 to ban mid-race refueling), new time records (due largely to said ban) or interesting new ways to film the fast-paced action.
A few weeks ago we brought you footage of an IndyCar pit stop filmed from multiple angles courtesy of Google Glass. Now BMW has released a brief clip of one of its M4 DTM racers coming in for fresh rubber, all filmed by infrared camera. Its the kind of technology BMW uses to help optimize its German touring cars for competition, and now the Bavarian outfit has released some footage for fans to enjoy.
The resulting thermal imagery gives you an idea of how hot the car runs (and where the heat is emanating from), how warm they get the fresh rubber before they get it onto the car, and what kind of temperatures the pit crew is subjected to. Look closely enough in the 25-second video below and you'll even see the heat sputtering out of the exhaust pipes as the M4 downshifts into its pit box. (Just don't try adjusting your speakers, the clip is without audio.)
