My new 535d M Sport

[Vish]

Epic barges. Good list of options on it too!

So then, whats the mpg like so far ....

I keep find myself looking at manual 530d's

Come off it!

Tbh im amazed with the mpg, if she drives it to the shops and round her mums ect its roughly 38mpg, when i drive it its more like 30mpg but i can honestly say i never thought a derv would put a smile on my face after owning a 600+ bhp Evo and a V8 Porsche.

Oh and dont do the V8 thing, as good as they sound and drive you wont want to drive it as they are such greedy slags.

Im still finding little extras on it evreytime i go out in it.

One thing that did bug me is the tyre pressure sensors, im driving down the M11 at a quick pace and i get the warning up on the iDrive "you have a puncture, you can drive at 50mph for so and so amount of miles" so now im thinking great im miles away from a service station and ive gotta drive on an expensive run flat and kill it as it dont say what one it is or what psi it actually has.
Anyway i got to an air pump and after checking all 4 one was 2psi under what it should of been grrrrrr.

Epic machine. I still drool over the Grey M5 in my street. I really can't think of anything I don't like about it.

Immense cars. I was lucky enough to drive a 535d and a 335d to a dealership recently and it just makes you want a barge so much!

very suave

Those wheels are the 19"s arent they without Run Flats

I really wouldn't recommend it we had a 550 and it drank fuel! I used to average 18MPG from Leeds to Manchester every day and that was pretty much all motorways so you can imagine what town/ sprinted driving was like!

Nope, deffo have run flats on as far as im aware.

Its going to R-Spec in Oxfordshire in the next few weeks for a remap really looking forward to seeing how much difference it will make.

 

[Topgeartom]

Love these. Proper barge

With a remap it will be more powerful than my Z3M. Mental.

Excellent choice.

 

[Ian_182]

Yes i know its had a map and i can see the quotes of get the m3 tuned,but you have to all admit its a massively capable car.M3's dont hang about as standard but none give you 40+mpg on a run.

 

[RSsprint]

Had it mapped on Weds, wow, it's made an awesome care that little bit more special.

So much lower down power and respone, I still got 38.7 mpg on a run on the M25.

It should be around 350/500.

 

[Christopher]

Mental.

 

[jesus]

Impressive!

 

[Ian_182]

Great result.Now you can cruise and get a good return and then nail it and it wont kill your wallet
