The people who are working at evo.co.uk must be Jags employees
The Jag they are talking about all the time are door squeaking at every pothole or crack in the asphalt...

I received my 535D M Sport last Monday 31st Jan. My last car was an Audi A5 3.0 Quattro. I can already safely say that I am now driving a car which feels 5 times better and more refined. I am genuinely ecstatic with the car. There is absolutely no fault with it so far. The engine is just out of this world. The gearbox fantastic. Steering and feel on the road is fabulous. Now, I am quite a stickler for details and wouldn´t praise a car if it didn´t deserve it. But this is the first car which I think I could see myself dring it for yerars before changing. I havent had time to take photos yet but will post some asap. I also noticed a real lack of reviews and discussions about the 535D saloon. For this reason, I was really going into the unknown a bit and was a bit worried about how it would all turn out. But no need to worry. This car is just perfect!! I havent had a minute to explore the car yet (work and family commitments) but I can´t wait to get a morning alone with the car and handbook.

Hi jinmadrid! Congratulations for your brand new acquisition!
I read your post regarding the 20k € you spared buying in the uk, It would be great to get some help from your side.

the final sentences say it all: "If you're vacillating between the two (530d and 535d), stump up the extra for one of the greatest engines in history. It's what Rudolph would have wanted"

Thats Rudolph Diesel ofcourse

Top Gear Magazine says: “In real-road driving, the 535D would push the M5 very close.”

And: " The greatest engine in history".

WOW!!!
