Switch from 520D to 535i

Hello all.
I have now had my 520D touring for almost 3 years. I love this car very much, but I dont like the vibrating engine.
I have seen an ad for a 535i with lots of options. Navigation, ventilated seats, Hifi! Sunroof etc etc. I can trade in my car at the dealer and pay 10000£ between. My car is not close to all this equipment.


Am I crazy to want a petrol 535i in europe?
This is the car. If it had been an M-Sport it would have been perfect
If I trade in I would mount BBS challenge R 20" wheels from my 520D.
The car in question:

Great specification...

I'd give it a test drive... sure you will find it answers the first concern.

I suppose your thinking of a 535i in Europe depends on your mileage. I run about 8k miles a year in mine and fuelling isn't such a big deal against a 530d, will be a bit more against the 520d.

BTW, had my F11 535i for almost two years now and don't regret it for a minute.

I am currently driving 17.000 miles/year.
The dream is a 535D M-Sport
