[font=Arial]Well....from last last Tuesday, you could see one in my garage. As I traded in my loaded E38 750iL, I had to get used to not have all the handy stuff and toys. But in the matter of engine power I have to admit that I somewhat was waiting for that engine. And the testdrive with an 520d surprised me: Enough power for me, enough for the way of driving that I expected. I still have three 12cylinders available, thus I can live perfectly with this kind of "lack of power"....
...but I greatly welcome the lack of gas - or better diesel - consumption which I even expect to diminuish has the engine has been driven in.

PS.: as I learned here I can even use my 20" M-Style rims. Just have to find out if the small engine can deal with this, too...
