Great car, was really impressed. It played the fast, fun tarmac terrorist and easy to drive comfortably to work in the same package. Not as engaging as my old M3 (?E45 - last of the IL6 ones) but can't expect that from a 5 series. Engine noise is fantastic & loved the completeness of the package.

Fuel economy wasn't as bad as I feared - averaged 22mpg with some spirited & some quite driving and the range was old.

Now thinking of swapping my 530d for one.....
For a 530d owner to say fuel economy wasnt as bad as you feared, the f10 m5 must be quite good on petrol/mpg
