Next sunday on top gear, they will be comparing the E60 petrol vs diesel. Sounds interesting. I really do hope that it will be the 535d and there have be no video reveiws of it yet.

Here in the colonies, we aren't on the same TOP GEAR schedule as you folks across the pond. For example, this week (Wednesday night, 10 PM, Discovery Channel), it's about Toyota trucks, I believe. (Collective yawn).

If Clarkson is reviewing then the Diesel will most definitely lose!!!

I was looking for a 535d but the impending 540i (virtually same cost) looks very attractive... V8 - Hmmmm

I'd recommend downloading the most recent episodes using some Bittorrent software and e.g. The Pirate Bay or some other decent site.

I believe the latest episode has a review of the M5.
