So after 3 years of BMW ownership I have moved on from my 530D and got myself something a little different:

Ideal.. for doing no miles at all.. not so much when you are about to start doing 100 miles a day  :w00t: whoops!

I'll bet you it's surprisingly economical on the motorway - at least you'll be travelling in a lot of comfort 8)

Sounds great but when driving normally you really do need to be flying to hear it, can tap it down a few gears to make that noise more accessible.

Already had a couple of issues, 1 was a quick fix after the airbox wasn't put back together properly after its last service but now the drivers door window regulator has crunched to a messy halt so that's getting replaced next week.
