The replacement for the zed

The zed is shortly to be leaving my driveway for good. Sad times :( . It's replacement is here and although she's a bit long in the tooth it's perfect for baby transportation.

Yeah, slightly annoying colour match but the car was super cheap so not too fussed. She's going to be a workhorse, taking stuff to the dump, towing the caravan so a dodgy wing is the least of my worries ATM. She is the 530d LCI so has a nice few options. Although she's going to be used with less affection than the zed, a cheeky remap might be on the cards. :driving:

Shame the Z had to go, but at least you've still got a BMW. :)

I have an 09 530d touring as my daily.
I've put 40k on it in 3 years and is been faultless. I'll keep it until the wheels fall off it!
