Hi

Thanks for the quick replies. I take it then that the 3.0D 218PS lump is not changing any time soon?

Thanks Paul

Here in the states the R6 engine that is being produced in March and released here in Mid/End May is definitely MY2006.

Peace

Are there published US prices (base plus options) for the 2006 530? If not, when would you expect pricing info to be available?

I'm hungry for more power, I'm interested in these new engines once they become available. 530 or 550 if there is one
