BMW 520d or 320d do you think?

2007 BMW 520d Automatic (LCI model) or 2006 BMW 320d Automatic (saloon)?

Hi Sandra,

Both are lovely, and if the prices are more or less the same, we’d go for the 5 Series as it’s bigger, comfier and slightly nicer to drive. Make utterly sure it comes with a full service history, though, and beware of issues with the infamous timing chain.
