Just been looking at the latest November Parts system update at my parts source

All the E60 standard bumper part numbers are now listed as only up to March 2007

Meaning new bumpers will be out asof March 2007 production, confirming the facelift date
This changing of the part numbers confirmed the E65 facelift dates and the E46 facelift before

I do belive this!

So the new engines will also come then.

A April built 535iA, mmmm

For a 530i 272 hp/315 Nm perhaps I will change due to the new AT and the interior design.
535i TT is a must no engine could suite E60 better after the M5

535da is to expensive for me to drive due to higher taxes. 1 year tax for 535da is 7350 sek and for mine only 2100 sek. I have to drive alot of km/miles to get even whith the less consumption of 535da.

Didn't you Swedes go for a diesel supporting (environmental) tax system?
Or did it only support the Saab Bi-Fuel?

The facelifted 530dA could be your choise.

Well, my car costs overhere €70.000 = about SEK 650.000 :thumbsdown:

But the yearly tax is "only" €130 = about SEK 1200.

Actually If the facelift comes in March. I think BMW will hold off on the engine till sept. That way they attract sales with the facelift and then attract more sales again in Sept.
