Got my F11 535i M-sport touring yesterday, and that is no slouch. 300 mile drive home, what a motor. Superb spec', including Adaptive Drive, HUD, panoramic roof, cameras, etc.

Went for the petrol as I don't do the miles, much sweeter than the diesels, vibration free.

The 35d is indeed a fantastic motor. I am still in the running in period but so far I haven't even had the need to apply full throttle, such is the power reserve in this engine. I am glad that the only things I can "complain" about are just:
- the time it takes to have ConnectedDrive fully operational after I first applied for it online,
- a rattle coming from the empty passenger seat's headrest (which I will ask to be solved by BMW Service when it is convenient for me).

And congratulations on your 35i, HighlandPete! I guess our 35d/35i engines are close cousins…
