My Ride: 2006 530 d M-sport e60
Default

Just had a call from the engineer who assessed my car, he offered me £11k for a total loss. I nearly swallowed my iPhone.
Phone my guaranteed asset protection and they said that the offer is sound and correct for my car in with it`s present mileage.
Now i play the waiting game until the money comes and i can start looking for that M-sport diesel i always wanted .

Sounds like it is starting to work out to your satisfaction. Good luck with the hunt for the replacement M-Sport Diesel ... I'm sure forum members who are in your area would be willing to help be on the look-out.

My wife has a CLS. Very smooth, much different car than the e60 though. A lot less sporty, but it's pretty cool looking.

M-sport diesel is what im after, specs are more important than the engine size.

Media pack and visibility pack, Extended lights pack, Advanced air-con, Ext. mirrors- auto-dimming and folding and hope fully Logic7.
