Congrats! Great choice of equipment and color combination.

What is your opinion on the diesel engine compared to your old engine?

congrats RR -- its finally there!!

I like the combo you have gone for, the wheels are a good choice. I thought you had mentioned that you were planning to use your 18" 123 rims in summer or are there already plans to go for 19s...

I see you went with the leather-fabric seats, which is not really a common choice with the 5er. I liked them when I saw them in a showroom, you also happy with your choice? And as the others wrote, how's the move from 6cyl petrol to 4cyl diesel?

Enjoy...

Congrats,but why theres no black interior trim, but this grey one??
It was no extra cost and looks much better.
BTW,i have the same model,but with 163 hp,dont hesitate to bother dealer with strange noises from engine in first times,theres "a child diseases" round belts and rools.

Here's some cell cam picks from the delivery today.

It's a LCI 520d (177 hv / 350 Nm) automatic.

The chrome grills are extra also.


A great looking ride!!!
