Moving this so as not to clog up Alan's thread:
It seems to me you should grab an older x5 as a beater / kid car / etc. The 2013s can be had for $15k with ~50k miles. You'll be driving the 2er most of the time, so having something a little 'less nice' as the 2nd vehicle won't be bad and you won't be putting a ton of miles on. They're durable, low maintenance and very good at hauling Dogs, Kayaks, and dirty kids:

Load them up w/ rubber mats and it doesn't even matter how dirty the kids or dogs are. Its safe enough for your son to drive when he gets his licens without you needing to worry 'too much' and cheapish to insure.
