X-5 Squared Ownership
X-Factory,
I bought the X-5 about 2 months ago, and thought it would be the perfect upgrade to my xx4. I have had 3 xx4 over 10 years and never really had a problem with it, except prices of parts. After 2 months of ownership (maybe more) the x5 squared will now be replaced by a b44 when it comes out.
The reason : -
The x5 squared it the fastest car i have ever driven, but also the worst. I have broken one rear shock tower every week, and a spur gear every time i go racing, one belt, and several pulleys. It will now come to a end from sunday night, when i start rebuilding the xx4, which i rarely had any problems with. And with spur gears at £11 quid each (in the UK) is it becoming very expensive (shame cause there only $11 in the states, another X-factory ripp off)
I my opinion the car is S**T, It is just 2 cars put into one and re badged, like the super aguri team in F1 ( a honda copy).
I do apolgise if i offend any x5 lovers, but this car is really P***ing me off.
Just to finish, X-factory build a car from scratch and stop ripping the uk off!
