Unbelievably good quality, consistency, handling & performance
My last one was a 2008 535dse and this new one is definately a big improvement in ride and elctronic features which all work properly.
I opted for the folding rear seats and this gives almost estate car carrying space with the security of a saloon boot. BMW online is great and useful for finding fuel and restaurants in unknown areas.
Comfort setting is perfect for lazy cruising and the sport setting is essential and superb on twisting and hilly roads. Silence and absence of noise makes this the most relaxed car I ever drove.
313bhp gives great performance, especially for overtaking. Stop/Start with Auto-Hold is also very useful in traffic queues. Even the parallel parking works although sometimes scary for passengers!
