Hello everyone,
I ordered my first BMW at the end of February and am currently waiting for its delivery. While I was looking at 330D or 330i, I decided to go with the 520D (Space Gray!) since here in Turkey cars with displacements above 2000cc are taxed at much higher rates.
A 330i with the M package and some extras came to 102000 Euro list price and I brought it down to 92000 Euros. But I decided to with the larger 520D since I drive long distances frequently and the car came to 72500 Euros with quite a bit of extras. List price was 81200 Euros so you know what I mean by taxes here!
I wish the 520D was available with the new 2.0 Diesel at 177hp but that was some months away and I thought I could deal with that with a new ECU from Schnizter if I find myself wanting.
Be safe

BTW, What is LCI?
