Hi guys,

i had a great vacation with the family! We (9 of us) rented a luxurious Villa in Calpe Spain. We visited nice places like the Millau bridge (tallest bridge in the world), Monaco - where ferraris are plentiful like VW golfs! I took my e60 (535d Sport) up to the tops of the mountains in Spain and Switserland (those are the sceneric pics that u see) - highest point was some 4000m.

My BMW 535d Sport - tuned to 350HP and 700NM - was absolutely amazing. We were with 3 cars - the other two were an A6 4.2L petrol and A8 4.2L petrol and they simply couldnt keep up with the momentum of the 535d and the ease at which i pulled away from them at the bends in the winding mountain roads. I thoroughly enjoyed the car. Still havent tested the top speed after remapping, but I tried the 0 - 60 acceleration and almost ended up in the back seat!

The pics are of scenery with the car and some pics of us.

Hope u enjoy the pics.

Super pics, really nice looking car & wife

Nothing agaist the Ferraris and the MB SLR, either.

But gee, the station wagon Audi A6 looks old and clumsy compared to your M5 look 535dA.


Europe is a very beautyful continent, from the North to the South!


Thank's for sharing.

haha good question! There were suprisingly quite a few places to hand wash the car on the route. So i made use of them where necessary.
