The BMW 5 SERIES (2010-13) 530I 5DR TOURING 3.0 272 EU5 SE BUSINESS MEDIA AUTO8 is an upmarket UK estate, blending executive comfort and strong performance with the load space families need, and sitting above mainstream estates in the market. It competes with the Audi A6 Avant and Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate. The 3.0-litre petrol engine and automatic gearbox make this 530i Touring a refined, quick long-distance companion on motorways, while the SE Business Media trim brings a well-equipped feel. It suits families, regular commuters and drivers wanting one comfortable car for work, holidays and everyday errands, rather than a basic, low-cost runabout. mycarcheck.com has recorded just four look-ups across three VINs, so figures are indicative, not a large-market sample. Those checks show an average private-sale value of £7,400, mileage of 83,000 and 2.25 previous keepers; low average annual use of 6,000 miles may appeal, but check each car’s history and condition.
