My 520 is a diesel and is a very economical car. Did a 350 mile motorway run up to Newcastle doing a steady 65-70mph and obtained just over 50mpg. I find the consumption much better when using the "auto pilot". The consumption is far better than my previous 523 petrol. The boot has increased in size expecially width ways as I can now get my full set of golf clubs in width ways - could never do this with the previous model as the 6 CD changer was located in the left hand side of the boot.
It's very nippy when I drop it into sports and has bags of power.
Just paid my insurance renewal a staggering £250 via Liverpool and Victoria. My best ever fully protected insurance ever!
