I had a look at the info from the registration and I noticed that it is a i version. I think it will be fun with the new engine and sports chassie. My 525 with the 192 engine have been fun and the new engine is said to be much quicker and better in response than the 192 version.

My dealer called today and asked if I wanted to pick it up earlier...

Now it have been delivered!

They had forgotten to mount my 124 wheels so they had to make a quite pit stop before I could hit the streets.


Checking the pressure.


A happy delivery serviceman and my sales rep.


Silver grey with Auburn and brushed alu trim. I think I will be able to live with it...


A dirty 525i goes in and out comes a new and shiny 535D. What a carwash!


I have just driven it to work, 15km. I think I have to take her for a ride this evening...


Quick Reply: New car, almost arrived. Now delivered!
