Beautiful car.

I assume that you located in Norway. Norway is one of the most beautiful countries on earth, if it is not the most beautiful country. My wife and I spent ten days there in 1995. Oslo, Lillehammer, Geiranger Fjord, Bergen. What a great place.

You may wish to identify your location. It makes the board more interesting and some feauures of the car are country specific.

Welcome on board Masheen

Congrats on the new ride - looks great all polished up in the sun

Let us know what the specs are.
Another close up photo of the tail-pipe would also be appreciated, looks as though the LCI (m-sport) model now has a beefier chrome finish to it

Thanks all of you for great comments. My dealer in Norway speaks of this 520d as a limited edition when the engine has been tuned down to 150 bhp from 163 bhp. It's a limited edition model for the Norwegian marked cause of very hig taxes. I don't think it's anymore special than any of your rides, though.

Here is some more pics of the engine bay and some of the interior.

Thanks, yes I am located in Norway, the northern part of it. Have you heard of Troms? ? The southern part of Norway like Oslo is great.

Will try to make an avatar and more info on country specs on my car

Thanks , the car has been prepared with Glare. Thats whats make the paint all that shiny. Will post pics of the tail pipe. But it's not chrome. I think it's more like polished aluminium or something like that.
