BMW 5 SERIES (2010-13) 525D 4DR SALOON 3.0 DPF EU5 204 SE BUSINESS MEDIA 6SPD is a premium, four-door executive saloon, offering more space and comfort than a family hatchback without the bulk of an SUV. In the UK used market, it competes with the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and Audi A6. This 3.0-litre diesel combines relaxed long-distance driving with a six-speed manual gearbox and SE Business Media equipment. Its roomy cabin, composed ride and strong pulling power suit commuting, business travel and family journeys. It is best for buyers regularly covering longer routes, rather than those making mostly short town trips. Mycarcheck.com records 26 look-ups across 20 distinct VINs, a useful but modest sample.
