Sharp looking car! I think the last (and perhaps first) time BMW had a diesel in the US market was with the 524td sedan, back in the mid-80s, and at that it was for only a year or so. Sure wish they'd bring 'em back, especially in the 1- and 3-series, I understand with the new technologies they are quiet, powerful, fast, and economical.

Hi Vaconlaptop
I was just searching the forums on this site for anyone who owns either a 525d or the Touring version as I am looking to purchase one very soon.

Are you able to provide a quick review on how you have found the car, driving/maintenance/reliability...etc...

Would love to hear what you think...

Thanks

Jay
