Good Points: Nice, comfy seats.
Bad Points: Rubbish satellite navigation. Bad fuel economy for the car which really isn't that big.
General comments: It cost me £63000 and had a lot of problems in the first month, which I see as unacceptable for such an up-market car! In the first month it got sent back 3 times because the satellite navigation screen would just randomly switch itself on and off! I don't know why I did this but I had a Mercedes S class, which had more electrics than the 5 series, and nothing ever went wrong in a year and a half! I bought it because my friend has one (quite a basic one) and I took it out and had great fun. But being me, I spent a fortune on the car and it's rubbish! Does noting for me and I just want rid of it! I think a good alternative is the Mercedes E class estate, which according to everyone I know who has one is great fun! Its comfy but not wort the hassle!

I bought the BMW 525d brand new and had a lot of problems during the first 2 years: twice the central locking system did not open, 3 times the original navigation system broke down, had to change the headlghts almost every month, the oil cooler leaked, the airbag system showed a malfunctioning due to bad connectors, the alarm lights could not be switched off after disarm the alarms ystem, radio still needs to be replaced and the extra heating system makes a strange noise and needs to be replaced ...
