Economy
Value
A bit overpriced before 2000/01, now OK.
Costs
If you want to save money, go German & Swedish and do it your self if know how, or get your friend to do it who knows, all garages/main dealers are rip off on these models thinking you have money to spend/waste because you drive BMW.

Driving
Drives well on motorways, but too heavy for humps and bumps as steering can feel it.
Performance
Very good and fast ride up to 80k, then performance goes slightly down, but still above the rest.

Living with it
Reliability
Keep on for faulty ball joints, overhead interior noise, possible water leak from the rain in the boot, under the spare wheel, look for the rust around arches.
