Its unusual, sweeping profile gives it a more individual look than a conventional saloon, while its size places it above family hatchbacks in the UK market. It suits families, business users and regular motorway commuters who want an upmarket, comfortable car with room for luggage, rather than an SUV’s taller stance.

The average recorded mileage is 122,000, with annual use around 8,000 miles and roughly three previous keepers; the average private-sale valuation is £6,900. The 520d’s diesel suits long journeys, while its comfort, space and hatchback practicality set it apart from Audi A6 and Mercedes E-Class saloons in its premium class.
