"The BMW 5 Series Sedan is difficult to fault. It is comfortable to run quietly and cheaply, but still very good to drive. The ultimate all-rounder. "

For a long time has the BMW 5 series to the floated on top of the business saloon stack and this current generation is no exception. to complain about a difficult car, it's up and down highways as pleasant pounding as it is "effusive" driven along a meandering country road. It is quiet, (if a little unimaginative) is well equipped and reasonably priced nice to walk, (as long as you pick the right motor).
The 5-series have things not quite own way, but and his rivals are stronger than ever. The recently revised Mercedes E-Class moves the game on in terms of comfort, technology and interior luxury, while the latest Jaguar XF is just as good if not better than the 5 Series to drive.

, the Audi A6, but begins his Age (a new feel is on the way) and the Lexus GS has always been a slightly left field choice, although the latest iteration of this car is the best it has ever been, too. You may want to consider also the Skoda Superb, the comparable space and comfort, as these cars offers, but for much less money.
Under the BMW hood, there is a wide choice of engines, with everything from fuel-sipping four ~~ POS = TRUNC diesel engines to monstrous turbo petrol V8 engines. Our pick of the range - especially if you are a company-car drivers - is the 187bhp 2.0-liter diesel in the 520d
operating costs compared to the less powerful 518d are identical, and the extra power really is. a blessing. You will get nearly 70mpg from a 520d equipped with an automatic transmission and the CO2 emissions of only 109 g / km means a £ 20 tax bill each year. This also means the company car driver will only be made for a 21% benefit-in-kind (BiK) company car tax contribution also liable.
They also get more powerful diesel engines, as well as a series of four, six and eight-cylinder gasoline topped separated by the enormously fast 550i and the ballistic M5 high-performance sedan, we've checked off.

trim If you go a 520d in SE, should you be pretty happy. You will receive all major appliances such as GPS, Bluetooth phone connectivity, parking sensors, DAB radio, leather upholstery and alloy wheels. When you luxury trimming step, you will unsurprisingly some more comfort-oriented functions, while the M Sport model has bigger wheels (CO2 emissions harm) and a sporty bodykit.
We would recommend usually leave the list of options alone, because it very quickly become very expensive, but we recommend adaptive suspension Add as necessarily transforms the car. It is quite expensive, but worth it.
There is no doubt about the quality of the BMW interior, but it's all to mark very dark and sober, with very few design touches it from the rest of the class. In this respect, the Audi A6 has struck for design, while the new Mercedes E-Class is exceptionally luxurious and packs in an awful lot of technology, too.
security not much should be of concern, either as Euro NCAP BMW is awarded 5er the full five stars if it has been tested in 2010 95 and 83% for adults and children occupant protection or while 78% protection for the safety of pedestrians succeeded. You get a large number of airbags as standard, as well as tire pressure monitoring, ISOFIX child seat attachment points, stability control and antilock brakes. You can also adaptive cruise control and add a variety of other features to make your 5-Series even safer.
as the owner set, the BMW 5 Series should be pretty good. Reader it assesses the 47th to be (0) best car in 2015 driving current customer satisfaction survey to own and came in terms of build quality is 50. A 119-space for reliability something of a concern, however.
