Hi- I recently acquired a 2004 x3 3.0 with 18,000 miles.

I plan to only modify fog lights and DRL to a legal Orange tint.

Do people feel an older x3 is safe for 7,8 year old kids in the back? No side airbags but it has a head airbag curtain.

Comes from a local dealer and I’ve driven . Anything I can look for?

Sales price is 13,000. Only scratch is on rear hatch (looks like someone opened it and hit garage door spring. Very minor scratche I’ll fix so it doesn’t rust.

Hi OP.

Do people feel an older x3 is safe for 7,8 year old kids in the back??

Answer: Yes I do, its not about the car, its about the driver.

I guess if you have any mechanic friends to ask them if they mind inspecting it with you and to ask the dealer for the full service history of the car and a checklist of their franchise checks done similarly for all their approved user cars.
