Hello good luck on finding your new and first X3,
A few things to look out for on the first generation X3.
- rear springs (known to brake due to salty roads)
- at some point the radiator expansion tank will need to be changed. Known to crack.
- oil filter housing and valve cover gasket.
- check that the license plate lights actually work. It’s known to fail and it’s the whole trunk handle with the lights that gets replaced. Not a big job but it took me awhile to find out why my license plate lights didn’t work. It’s called “ trunk lid grip “
That would be a good start.
