Petrol 3.0 Manual
Hi. Have just joined as I'm currently in the market for a X3, preferably a facelift petrol 2.5 or 3.0. I've seen a few manual 2.5s for sale, but have yet to find a manual 3.0. The reviews at the time state the 3.0 is available with a manual box, but does anybody know if they actually ever sold any in the UK?

Hello and 
Good luck with the search. Probably as rare as 3.0L X5’s back in the day too. My Dealer wanted a £10k deposit if I went for the manual in case I cancelled.

Looking at Howmanyleft I don't see a manual 3.0 petrol as ever being taxed :

Thanks for the replies. Can see it is looking unlikely.
