Am i right in thinking I read somewhere that BMW have developed an even meatier diesel engine than the 535d to feature in a so-called "745d" (for the european market only exlcuding UK)...

or was that another diesel dream...

if i am right, what are the stats of the 745d and any chance of BMW shoe-horning it in the E60 chassis....

that would be one mean %$"!^$$&

The 745d has replaced the 740d in europe with the facelift model

BMW has never made plans o fit the bigger diesels into the 5 Series

I think the 745d is underpowered compared to the new Audi and Merc V8 diesels.
