I'm relocating back to the UK, and get a Company Car ( not interested in opting out for a variety of reasons)
The list is
BMW 525d SE Touring, leather BMW 535i SE Touring, leather BMW 525d Sport saloon Audi Avant 3.0 TDI ... high co2 emissions, but some 40 bhp more than the BMws, and more torque
I've had 2 X3 20i 1 x A4 ... that I hated 1 X 330i Coupe ... which I loved, but christ, it was noisy on a motorway 1X 523i ... hit an armco at 85 mph, and lived. Great space and comfort ....
Driven a few BMW's didn't like any of them. I opted out and I'm on my second new Multisrada in three years. The left over just about covers the running and servicing costs (36,000+ miles a year uk and abroad) OK lets be honest I don't do cars
The Beemer 5 series has the small problem that people point and laugh at it openly, it's that ugly.... Possibly a decent car but there are limits as to what you should be seen in.
