Whats the factory BHP on my car? 294 or 313?

Hi

I've recently purchased a September 2012 535d GT M Sport and i keep reading conflicting numbers on the BHP figure.

Dealer said it was 313BHP but several websites like honest john etc list the BHP figure for that car as 294BHP.

Most recently I asked for a quote from a mapping company who mentioned "We can take you're car from 294 BHP"

Which is correct? Are there different versions and is there something else i need to check to work out which one I have.

If your tax is £180 a year it's 313bhp, if it's £205 a year it's 295bhp....

I would look up the power rating (in kW) via one of the BMW vin decoders. You just need the last 7 digits of the vin.

Just Google, BMW vin decoder...
