X5 E70

[Ciaran]

Good morning

I'm going to be selling our XC90 and moving to an E70 but there seems to be a few difference versions and I was wondering if there was a buyers guide explaining facelifts etc on the model and what those changes were. I was probably aiming for a 2010/2011 one.

Thanks

try and get a facelift with the 8 speed gearbox, its much much better, a 40d would be my choice, thought the 30d is a perfectly good car

Head over to xdrivers.co.uk, plenty of useful info (and lots of owners!) there.

Agreed - all 40d's are 6 speed, so no trying to figure out if its a facelift or not (all 40'd are, from 2010 onwards)

8 speed you mean, surely?

Indeed, LCI are 8 speed.
