"Which is all very well, but no sooner do we set off than we have to stop for a reality check. Both petrol 535i and diesel 530d are £37,000 cars even without that gear; add the options fitted here, and a number not unadjacent to £50k gazes right back at you. And guess what: 80 per cent of 5-Series sold in the UK are the 520d. A car BMW hasn't actually put into production yet. So as to what the 5-Series is like when fitted with the base engine and the real-world chassis spec, we have little idea."
This is what is annoying as all the cars so far sent here to the UK are the high spec ones with all the toys and all the youtube test drives are the high spec as well and then they expect you to order a basic one on the strength of that test drive. Same with the alloys, all 19 and 20"
How can people order one without trying the spec they want?
