My Ride: 2006 530 d M-sport e60
Got back home at 4:30am this morning (Monday), 1510 mile there and 1510 mile back. I`m exhausted but it was fun. My 530d performed brilliantly averaging 42mpg with it reaching 46mpg at one point.
Fastest I drove on the German Autobahns was 120mph, I don`t like going really fast and it was made all the more difficult with my wife screaming at me to slow down, I`m hoping one of our German members can help me understand why it all ways rains at this time of year, when we did the trip two years ago we got stuck in a major rain storm and the same thing happened this year as well. I`m still struck at how beautiful Austria is, saw an Air show in Austria while we stopped for a break.
Hope you guys like the pics, there not the best but it shows some of the good things we saw.

Good to see you made it there and back safely. Only up to 120 mph on the autobahn?
Oh well, maybe next time your wife will be asleep.
Nice pics by the way.

Chears stoic, The car felt really fast and im not the most confident person but I have no doubt it would have gone all the way to 155mph.
