So after parting with the Zed last summer, having a baby, moving house. It's now time for a replacement,



520d M Sport Touring

 

[sars]

Congratulations, how longs the wait?

 

[original guvnor]

Lovely. I really like the 5-er Touring. Congrats

When do you get your hands on it?

 

[marchantsuk]

Not sure, just done the deal this eve, need to discuss the timings on Monday

 

[Oakandacorns]

Looks nice and boot space must be great

 

[PerryGunn]

Congratulations, they're lovely cars

Mmmmmm! New car smell....

 

[mr wilks]

Quality choice Well out of touch on new car prices but out of curiousity how does it compare to similar spec X3 pricewise ?

 

[marchantsuk]

£2k deposit, £500 pm
They also took my 320 touring and 120d coupe and cleared the remaining finance.

All in all very happy with the deal. So 2 cars down to one, if we find the need for a second car....... Then hello Z
All the groundwork done in advance 8)

nice choice!

I've had mine nearly 1 year added 14,000 miles (525d F11) and today gong and coming back from the Autosport show at the NEC it returned 51mpg. Go figure.

Mmn nice but a little boring :wink:

 

[Carol M]

Nice one. Congrats

 

[Stuart Truman]

That's one of the standard company motor choices at work. Everybody who has one loves it.

 

[ZermattV]

Very nice

I'd really like one of these... either a second car in 520D form or sell the Z and go 535D. I could live with the saloon as I don't have a family, but would also be happy with the touring for those odd times I couldn't get something in the saloon etc.

I'm holding off though as I'm refocusing on the house presently and I need to amass a large amount of cash this year and next so I can consolidate a few properties and move into my final-ish house in the country.

How do you find that engine in the F11? I have the same in a 1 series and it's ridiculously economical with more than enough poke.

520 f11 is a cracking motor,had mine 18 months, just be carefully with the media screen. It's so fragile. You touch it,you scratch it. Make your first job to cover it with a non reflective iPad cover. It pops out in a couple of minutes. They've a 535 F11 at Worcester with 9k of the screen price but that figure can a also be knocked off a 530 with persuasion.

We can't get a 5 series touring in Canada..... bugger, that's a nice looking motor.

We used to get nice wagons , they must not have sold enough here...pushing the X series I guess.

Lovely car and great for a family, boot space seems endless

 

[marchantsuk]

Drove it for the first time today, great to drive and fantastic cabin. Off to place order on Monday
