My Ride: My ex-ride: EU '08 LCI 520dA. Space Grey, Sport Seats in Black Leather/Fabric Anthracite, Sport Steering Wheel, A/C with Extended Features, Hi-Fi Speakers, Cup Holders, Cruise with Braking function, Folding Rear Seats, Xenons, Park Distance Control.
While my own car was getting updated to 19.2., my dealer gave my a 530dA for a testdrive.
I must tell that the +500Nm of torque is fenomenal.
The acceletarion from 60-70 km/h to about 130 km/h is simply great
and no time is wasted.
The best was, that it has been snowing all day; I have been in slides, not many of you can imagine.
The DSC (etc.) works really great, the car is easy to handle; just more gas!!!!
what comes to modern diesel engines.
PS. You cannot hear a thing from the engine!!!
Unfu**ing believable

Whilst reading your post I thought this could be a tall story
But then you confimed the truth with your last comment.

I do think the diesel engine makes a nice sound under full thrash though.
