I have a 525D F11. Best family car I ever had. Comfortable, smooth silent car. I know diesel engines are noisy but inside the car you can barely hear it.
Currently in the market for one of these or a 530D, so thank you for putting this together 👍🏻 just wanted to check one point you made about the adaptive lights - you mentioned about the switching between high and dipped beam. That’s High Beam Assist (I think that’s what BMW call it) and Adaptive Lights are when the light clusters turn depending on the steering input you’re giving.
They’re fantastic cars! You’re absolutely right, that is high beam assist. Other manufacturers call it different things and I’ve gotten so used to the phrase “adaptive lights” 😅
I own an F11 530d Se with £12k of extra goodies. It’s a phenomenal car and it’s adaptive drive makes a mockery of the standard M-Sport suspension. There’s no body roll when cornering, toggling between Comfort, Normal, Sport and Sport+ modes make it a Jekyll and Hyde car. It’s my family tourer and dog bus, yet when the mood takes me goes like stink.
@@condorprestigevehicles they also have a bad reputation especially the diesels, unreliable engines/egr issues and so on. But still more reliable than a L322😂
@@piovo1 what you mean is they rattle your fillings over every bump but go round corners great......just before you lose your license like BMW driver😂😂😂

Not all diesel. N47 is super noisy in general. N57 is a better engine.

They’re undoubtedly great cars 😎

No mention of the dreaded timing chain problems

Mercedes are in a different league to BMW especially in interior material selection.
BMW leather is garbage
mercedes cracking is next level😂😂
The 2015 - 2019 c class doesn't even use real leather.
@@InSerTRSA i wouldn't know.
I've got an E Class
BMWs drive 10x better then Mercedes unless your a 60 year old retired man.
