E61 525D touring

very good, but r****** headlights

hi, this is my second bmw, the car is great to drive, very good MPG from a 3lt engine with auto box, i get mid 40,s and thats a mix of fast motorway and town driving. But the one thing that pulls the car down is the very poor headlights. after a lot of internet searching i found out i had to replace the bults to a higher spec, this i did and the car on dipped beam just gives out enough light to see the road edges on unlid roads, still very poor.
the idrive is easy, set it up and its sorted, the sat nav is not so good as tom tom, but it was in the car and works, took me to the front door of an hotel in germany without missing a beat, what more do you need.
would i buy again, yes, a very big yes.
