Just got a copy of this month's Total BMW magazine. My 530d is featured, along with the DMS demo 535d.

Not read the article yet, but I thought I'd mention it. For those interested in comparing the 535d to the 530d and/or considering a visit to DMS ;)

Some nice photos of the 2 black cars together.

Nice - how did you come to get your car featured?

I enquired about a DMS upgrade for my 645ci, ups the power to c 360 bhp but I'm really concerned that it will affect warrenty despite claims that it's undetectable - any thoughts

Very nice - I read the article with interest as I've just picked up a 530d. The article seems to suggest that there's not much noticable difference between a tuned 530d and a 535d - is this about right? Also, would you recommend the DMS tune?

btw - nice car!

The DMS tune is very worthwile. There is a noticeable difference between the 2 engines. Would I pay ?4K extra? I'm not sure.

Of course the written article is never quite what you actually say.

Picked up the mag at the Eurotunnel on the way to the ring - nice surprise to see your car in it :thumbsup:
