### Detailing & Care:
* Ceramic coated shortly after purchase
* Always hand washed myself using the two-bucket method and maintained with "Reload" for a smooth, polished finish
### Notes:
* Although my passengers joke about how long I spend finding the ideal lone parking spot, there are a few cosmetic defects consistent with age and size of the car - These are cosmetic only, so I've never repainted, but I'm happy to negotiate after viewing
* Otherwise I have just washed and topped up the ceramic coating giving the car a smooth mirror finish
### Fuel Economy:
* Consistently averages 30 mpg
* Always fuelled with branded premium diesel (never supermarket brands) and more recently Costco premium Diesel
* Full fuel and mileage log available since 2016 at fuelly website, add /driver/iiirestoreriii to the end of the url and make sure to switch to UK units for accurate data
We have small hybrid for local driving and another pocket rocket for more spirited trips, so this X5 is mainly reserved for relaxed long distance driving. After viewing Lexus and Mercedes equivalent we have put a deposit down on a newer X5 allowing us to take advantage of our residential solar install.
### Final Thoughts:
You will find very few cars that will have been maintained and cared for like this one over nearly a decade of ownership. A reliable, refined and capable long-distance cruiser ready for its next chapter.
