Those old X5s are incredibly safe motor cars, they hardly sustain any damage in a frontal impact, the tow truck absorbs most of that.

@mattdebyl8806
@mattdebyl8806 2 года назад
Absolutely nailed it as always. These are all gems and depreciated like mad. The Z3 was considered unsophisticated at the time because it was based on E30 and E36 gear. Well, turns out we quite like those when we don't want them 'sophisticated'. E83 X3 was criticised for hard ride and not really being an off-roader. Yeah but, now everyone loves SUVs and most of them aren't off-roaders, so that negative then isn't today. They also not only stuffed the 3.0 N52 (and M54 in earlier variants) but the 3.0 M57 diesel and that is supposed to be an AMAZING engine capable of stupid numbers and pretty darn reliable. Personal I reckon the diesel is the bet. They were based on the E46 and again, it's kind of a great, simple, well regarded platform. Funny how perceptions of things change over time. X5 was already well regarded, they're just kind of old, but they do still have a striking design. The diesel is the same as the X3 and again, it's a decently big output euro diesel. 130i is often completely forgotten about, but is now much cheaper and in many ways the better bet than the similar R32 Golf, 147 GTA and G Master Blade. That polarising Bangle styling is actually ageing nicely. The only thing I would say is that the 328i has never really been underrated nor forgotten. They were always the poor man's M3 and I reckon some of the 5 series are way more underrated.

I love the E53 X5. and totally agree. I've always thought the Z3 was one of the funnest classics. Frankly I just learned about the E87 here... wish we could get those here in the States. Along those lines, I'd argue that the E82 is actually a very practical underrated bargain itself in its own way. The model shares innumerable components with the E92, both factory and aftermarket; thus making this shorter wheel-based little brother a great and affordable option if you love effortlessly carving up curvy roads. I'd toss in a vote for the E39 Touring as another top underrated BMW.

E53 X5 is one of the most capable cars I have driven. My mate bought one as a spare car with the 3.0 Petrol and it had 317,000kms on it. 2.5 years later, still going, had no issues going on the beach, snatched my mates beached Rodeo out. It burns oil like no tomorrow, but nothing that black and gold oil from Woolies won't fix. It's been very reliable.

I sold my Porsche 911 about 6 months ago because the appreciation was challenging to ignore and used some of the money to buy a MINT E53 X5 3.0. I honestly enjoy driving the E53 just as much as my old 911. The X5 has a tad over 75,000 miles on it, it is a 2006.

If it's burning oil, it's probably a problem with the valve cover. The gasket is leaking oil and/or the valve cover is cracked. Both of those will leak oil onto the exhaust manifold.

BMW still seam to take pride in their product and wont throw their customers under a bus should something go wrong. What a wonderful world it would be if Volkswagen Group and Mercedes Benz shared the same sense of pride and corporate responsibility.

I may be biased, but the e39 530i Sport is very under-rated and I am surprised it didn’t make this list. While not available as a manual in Australia, they nailed the ride/handling balance with the MTech 2 package, the M54B30 is one of the best engines BMW ever made, the rack & pinion steering the six cylinder cars had is much sweeter than the V8s with a steering box and the cars look great, are really comfortable and have amazing build quality (they have that “hewn from granite” vibe all good German cars used to exude). They’re reasonably reliable and easy to work on too. Used prices are still relatively very low (but climbing). Get a nice 530i Sport and many people will see it and think it’s an M5. However, the most under-rated BMW (IMO) is the e46 325ti, with that weird bug eye front styling. Smaller, lighter and more practical than a coupe, the ti was overlooked when new and then the 1 series pushed it into obscurity. The M54B25 with a manual would be a fun daily drive classic

@mattdebyl8806
@mattdebyl8806 2 года назад
Agree about the 325ti, but they are super rare and hard to find any, let alone a nice one. I liked the styling now and then, they looked fresher than other E46s. Only thing is I don't think they were actually much lighter and IIRC they were more expensive than a 325ci when they were new. Which is probably why they're impossible to find.

I'm a sucker for a BMW, and theres just something about the swb rear wheel drive 1 series that gets me going. The 130i was a hot hatch that really offered something different from its competitors, at the time, and unfortunately something we may never see again. I personally prefer the coupes, and it's a shame the 125i (coupe) received a detuned n52, because with a few more ponies I may have picked it over the n54. Loving the content lads!

Only car brand that'd probably be worst for doing that is Holden lol. Regardless brilliant list guys. A couple of ideas for future videos if you're interested guys is the top 5 cars that tarnished manufacturers reputations and top 5 car that save car manufacturers reputations. They'd both be controversial but it'd definitely get people talking in the comments that's for sure lol. Also congrats on hitting 70k subs as well you've earnt them guys and not long now til you hit the silver play button 😉 😀.

I own the 2002.09 3.0i E53 and compared to diesels and V8s, it does have less power, but with aftermarket LPG device it's cheaper to run than it's diesel counterparts and alot more reliable than the V8s because its M54B30 engine. In normal traffic that engine is actually fine, while towing setting the automatic gearbox into Sport mode is recommended and you can forget doing races with it as the power isn't just enough to move the 2 tonne body, 0-100kmh is around 9.5-10s mark. For racing, I would recommend a coupe with that engine or pick an M-model or M-trimmed version with bigger engine.

I daily a 2009 E-70 x5 with the M57 30d. They are underrated IMHO. I have 300k kms on the odo and it still planted and sure footed to drive. We use it for our family vacations to the Kenyan coast (1200km round-trip) 2-3 times a year.The only issues I have had are wear and tear related. Vibration damper pulley, rear air bellows,coolant return pipe and thermostat replacements. I keep a short service interval (8000kms) and I do not believe in changing the transmission oil or filter in a high mileage tranny. I just ensure it is topped up /correct level for smooth gear shifts.

The Z3 3.0 is suuuuuuper expensive, not underrated at all. The 4 cyl is however underrated.

Yeah, I didn't quite get that. The 3.0 is silly hard to find and expensive. Also the Z4 with the 3.0 is at least in some ways a better thing AND I reckon more underrated (especially given their price).

BMW like Mercedes and Audi are just far too expensive to repair or service. To me they do not make sense as second hand buys. The cost of parts from the manufacturers should go down as the vehicles age, because the parts prices do not go down and the complexity of the vehicles makes them hard to fault find and fix, I believe this makes them depriciate quicker. If a vehicle is out of warranty and second hand and has high parts and labour costs and known for being unreliable past a certain age then surely it makes sense from the manufacturers perspective to make common failing parts cheaper. Reputations of manufacturers can be lost if their vehicles do not cut the mustard for life span, especially if repairs are eye wateringly expensive and result in worthless junk no one will touch. These are very nicely designed vehicles that are well appointed and generally nice to drive. But,,,, if anything goes wrong, the cost of repair can be horrendously expensive. Performance versions of these German cars are awesome, I get why people want one, however a cheap BMW M5 or Merc C class AMG will never be reasonable to own or run. If you cannot afford to buy it new, you probably cannot afford to buy and run it second hand either unless a mechanic yourself. I like them but after researching these cars, I just get put off.

The X3 has to be one of the most un-reliable SUVs ever produced. Stick to the X5 if you must.

That X3 looks way too ugly to me. I mean, who signed off on that? And I tend to like the odd-er kinds of BMW as well.

Another great vid. I reckon the non-M5 E39s are also underrated? Or maybe not. But - cheap as chips, great to drive and not too hard to maintain with a heap of online parts suppliers. Yes I’m biased … 535i owner here… check out my vid … I had to change the timing chain guides but still worth it IMO…

@BMW1M are the older V8s reasonably reliable? I always got the impression it was BMW straight 6 or nothing.

The last good BMWs were the E46 and E39s from there they are overpriced and fragile
@mattdebyl8806
@mattdebyl8806 2 года назад
Well the X5 is an SUV version of the E39 and the X3 an SUV version of the E46. Both the E46 and E39 are hardly underrated. Where as the X5 and X3 were considered to be dumb versions of the sedans. But fast forward 20 years and it's SUV everything and those models actually are great.
