aja540i 1906 Report post Posted November 1, 2013 Let me know if anyone sees a 3.8 touring locally.... ....BWAHAHAHAHA! I'd sell a nut for one, I reckon. The Mrs reckons she'd drive an E34 Touring, but not sedan Apparently we don't "need" a V8, but the E34 M5's only a 6, so should be easy to talk her into Practically the same as the 525i.... Yeah 'cos you're going to buy an e34 m5 wagon and let Mo drive it... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kiwi535 538 Report post Posted November 1, 2013 New X5 M 3 litre diesel , three hairdryers , 280kW 740Nm of torque and a suspension set up to handle it , hardly a badge job. At 7 to 8L/100k and 0-100k in 7-8 seconds they are so good they are killing the V8 petrol in sales. Having owned an X5 diesel now for a couple of years I can understand why BMW are not pushing the petrol versions. If you are dragging weight then torque counts more than power i have had a quick drive of a X5 5 d.The fella in the Honda Cicvic waas surprised.The 8 spd auto helps Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
