I'm replacing my 2011 X5 35d by a new Mazda CX-5. The BMW cost me a compact car in repairs over the last 3 years. A turbo replacement, reversing camera and sensors gone (I don't repair them), check engine light for last 3 years, and so forth. Besides, the German electronics are retarded compared to Japanese. The worst GPS system I have ever seen anywhere. Repairs are a fortune too, due to parts. I rather invest elsewhere. And it's not just BMW, I sure had a lemon. My daughter purchased a new Mercedes GLA250 in France. 2 years old and 12x in the garage for electronics failures. The garage is incapable to make a lasting repair. I had 3 Audis prior, which were better, but still costly repair bills. My friends with simple Japanese boast how little their cars are in for repairs. I don't trust European cars any further than anything else. Are they better? My X5 is an excellent car when it runs. I know when I leave home, but I don't know when I return. A bit like Jaguar in the old days.
