Hello All
Time to move on! I have loved owning my 545 over the last two years! Sad to see her go but.....
Now I am running a car which I think is revolutionary: the 335d
US guys won't have seen these, but the UK (and everywhere else?) will know all about it.
I spend 99% of my time around town, short runs on the motorway etc, hence my decision to go to the 3 series.
Now which one? I drove a few, and 335d was the overwelming favourite! 580 MN of torque! (60 more than the M5) Plus
excellent handling traction control, electronics (BT just works in 2 seconds) just perfect around town and motorway....
I think however even though I am no longer a 5 series owner I'll hang around E60.net....
Cheers

1990 M5 The best ever (Sold in UK)
1996 328 Loved it Sold
1996 V70 (no cant explain)
2004 545 Loved it - Sold
2009 335d Go the diesel!
