Hi All,
First post here so it will be brief.
Thank you in advance for having me and helping me learn about this wonderful car.
I have purchased a MY 05 530i with 74,000km in very nice condition. It has a full BMW service history and is a base model (i think).
This is a nice inroduction to this car and already i have plans for the next one which will have more options, more power and more mods.... Not saying i am disappointed, just greedy for more.
This forum has already improved my driving as i did the transmission reset and it is like a new car all over again.
Thanks again.

not my favourite colour but better than the dark colours, easier to keep clean and cool during summer.
