Cheers @Olaf New Zealand has its shackles on me! It’s my wife, who is a kiwi, that wants to go to the UK. I give her two Winters, the first she’ll think they can’t all be like this, but the second will confirm they can! Yes, sold locally.

That was a good send off for the old girl; 1600km and 4 nights living out of her from Auckland to New Plymouth, Wanganui, Wellington, Coromandel and back to Auckland. After ten years in NZ, I fly out to the UK today, been a pleasure Bimmersporters!

I’ve recently been in the Far North, and where better for fish and chips on the beach. Having recently been on a trip through the Central Plateau, the E53 is fast approaching 400,000KM. We will be driving from Auckland to Wellington via Waitara, Waverley, Wanganui and Paraparaumu, and then back to Auckland via Coromandel; which should do it. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we’re heading to the UK on April 22nd after which the car will be for sale, no expense has been spared on making her safe and reliable for my family and I’ll be sad to see her go. If you or anyone you know is in the market for an E53 then please sing out.

I’ve put nearly 15,000KM on this thing which means we’re close to ticking over 400,000KM. To be honest, it’s hard to believe. If I was super picky, and I generally am with my cars 😂 the A/C could use a re-gas, the radio pixels are gone and the headliner is ready for a re-trim. That’s genuinely about it. Serviced today by the man @BMTHUG and while he was at it: Out with the old and in with the new (super picky 😂).

I've said it before, I'll say it again...

None are unkillable, but these engines are almost there. 400,000 kilometres on my M57 E53 X5 and she starts and runs like new.

Looks mint (literally). Get well soon bro!

Down by the river. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Bimmersporters!

I found my iPod Classic, and the E53 already has a Parrot hands-free wired in and working! Peak naughties!

SOLD

Cheers brother, you’re the man!
