Yeah that's the 520d for sure. The 40d gives 32 UK mpg. My last car (E90 M3) was seriously heavy on the premium unleaded..... about 18 UK mpg

What I love most about the diesel BMWs is the torque! Lock in Sport mode and your head better be firmly up against the headrest!

My choice of all 5er's would be the M550d.... unfortunately not coming to Oz as it's not being built in RHD.
