Anybody having 525 Xi from late 2006 or 2007 ? What are your experiences about this model, something that I should check or be prepared for, before buying one ? Main question of course the 4 -wheel drive technique and reliability with this car.

Since you're in Finland (notorious for snow) I think XI would be a good option to have. In all my time on this forum I haven't heard of many issues with 525 or 530 BMW's. It seems that the most reliable engines ever made by BMW are their inline-6's (non-turbo).
My only suggestion is to find a 2008 so it is not a PRE-LCI (for looks).
