Guess what ive just drove :P

[gazwhittle]

Well my brother drives a claped out volvo paid £400 for it with 40k on the clock,

a woman pulled out of a juction got hit by another car that sent her flying into my bro's volvo. ( she was over the limit with 2 kids in the back)

anyway my bro got a call ," hi sir your lease car is on its way to you and will be there in around 20 mins".

belting waited in with him as i wanted to noisy wat it was , next thing looked out the window a old style focus was outside with a chap with a hi vis on sat inside, thought belting its here laughed at his sheddy car.

but no knock on the door , until i next looked out the window to find this...

a 09 plate bmw 520 m with ready for it ??? 200 miles :P he oviously let me have a drive round the local estate ect and it is ooober quick.

the reason he managed to get this is because the rental company only have car that are bout 20k and no older than 6 months old. plus he is 6ft 8 and hurt his back in the crash.

ill get a proper pick when i nip home later.


ooo and its a 2.0l turbo die-sel pushing 200bhp <---- thats what the lease man said..

[furiomike]

i drove a 520d m sport earlier this week. i think they look really good and the little diesel dint feel too bad really. the 520d is 160 bhp as stock i think...

[Liam_LFC_VTR]

Looking at the thread title I thought you had drove a Bugatti or a Ferrari lol

Thats a nice car though :y:

[Sparco_Tom]

[Karl]

wow 200bhp in a car that big.
that isnt uber quick, lol

[gazwhittle]

that isnt uber quick, lol

no but till diesel so more torqe plus rear wheel drive , it is really quick spec wen i drive a 1.4

best feature i think is there is no spare wheel as standard because the alloys are wrapped in run flats

[kenny]

ive driven one, wasnt the quickest car ive driven but wasnt to bad.

[Chris_F]

Not my cup of tea tbh
Never been a fan of bmw

[saxokid100]

Not my cup of tea..............+2........:n:

[furiomike]

they're only 20kg heavier than an older 320d, so they actually have more bhp per tonne which isn't too shabby. torquey diesel stops it feeling too heavy. i got wheelspin changing into 2nd ;) lol

[GoGs_MacAulay]

sorry to say but 520d Diesels only have 160bhp 0-60 in 8.4

525d Diesels have 194bhp
or
530d Diesels have 227bhp

[Jordysport]

i went out in a 525 diesel once, i was on the stopwatch and it did 100-0 (mph) in 4.1 seconds i was hanging in my seatbelt lol. and it outdid the speed limiter :P

[DNBJ]

Iv had a go in a 525 diesal too, was fuckin immense, found out some girl wrote it off a week later, she diddnt have a license!

[Tontsy]

[potatopete]

You must be easily pleased.......

[Matt67]

I don't even have a spare on mine, and mine is an 04 plate.

[Mr_X]

lol at the m sport, not too bad tho.

wouldnt say it was quick, comfy yes.

[pinin_prestatyn]

These type of diesels feel fast though cos of the buckets of torque

[ben_glen]

ive driven one, wasnt the quickest car ive driven but wasnt to bad.

+1 i used to drive the estate version at work..

prefered the 2.2lt tdci mondeo titanium X =]

[rushy_23]

Uber-over-climax :(

[Chin]

are you all taking the piss saying you'd rather drive a mondaneo instead of a 5 series ?

Get a grip x

[rushy_23]

Tread title didnt live up to its expectations. Thats all, dont cry.

[rootyboy]

we run two 07 plate 530m sports at work and for a car that big they are not sluggish they are all mid range grunt, and they are good for a bit of sideways action
