My Ride: BMW 525dA 2007 pre-LCI.
Model Year: 2007
Default

Hy,

After driving for 16years a Mondeo without problems it was time to look for a new car.

My wish-list was a RWD, 6 cylinder engine, automatic, large break.
Looking around my choice was quickly made a 525d. Since a 3L is expensive here in belgium tax wise i went for a pre-LCI.
The youngest one i found was from jan 2007 which had the specs i wanted.

Some pics :
