The 525D has marginally better fuel economy. However, the 530D has much better performance.
I want performance and economy but i am a little bit cofused now you only heard or have an experience with 525d?
But if you do this on a 525d will be like an 520 for economy
But if you do this on a 525d will be like an 520 for economy anyway i think 177 hp 400 nm with chip is engough for everday driving
Up to you, of course. I’d rather go for the HO version of the same engine, but that’s just me.
I would get a 530d a 525d is a detuned 530d and has a lot less power. Not sure on economy. As with buying any BMW diesel, make sure that it gets a dpf removal, egr delete, and swirl flap removal. These tend to fail on higher millage models and could lead to and engine rebuild! Maybe a cheeky tune too…
Thinking of getting an e c class 270 w 211 i think a 12 year old mercedes would be more reliable than a 12 year old bmw + it couldnt cause a hole in my pocket i think
My dad has a 530i 40mpg on a run! Around 25-30mpg around town. Audi fsi engines are good also.
This sounds good 30 mpg bmw gasoline inline 6 engines are torquey and powerfull
