As an owner of a 530d, I wouldn't say thatThe 530i is fairly epic.
As the driver of both a 530i and a 530d I wouldnt say that either

not had a chance to look properly yet mate, been brushing up my CV
OT:
Polish that CV my friend. My ex runs one of their big food retail accounts, but has placed currys store/regional managers before. I assume your at Jessops? (only camera business i can think that is large enough to close that number of stores). John Lewis is worth looking into, they are looking to build 10 new stores in the next 5 years or so, and double their number of employees by 2015. You may take a pay cut for a short time as you'd go in as a section manager then goto department manager - but the career progression is secure and the job security is good. Oh - and the bonus aint bad either
You should be the photographer for bmw coz you have made that look infinitely better than most of bmws press shots. Sounds like your very impressed with it. Would be a nice step up from your mondy but obviously only with one of the 3ltr 6 pots in it.

Good good you are amazing at it, Hope one day you can take some pics of mine, getting a friend to do some but he is more a wildlife photographer, but if they come out half as good as yours then I would be happy
P.S get us some discount for all the ocuk detail freaks
haha I'll have to speak to him about that actually, he's actually said something along them lines
The guy does some SERIOUSLY high value metal, he's done a veyron or two, limited edition 1 of 2 enzo, 1 of 3 convertible Zonda, ltd edition McLaren F1 as well as a few normal mclaren F1s, Lambo LP640s etc.....but he does do normal cars too
He does my cousin's car which is a Porsche 997 Carerra 4S.

Tom any chance i could add you to msn ? would like to ask a few photography questions if thats poss ?
do it
maybe the se suspension is crap?
what age is it? the 07 plate got the newer 2l 175bhp engine, vs 160 ish of the older ones.
this is very very stable at speed, i've been quite (understatement) quick in this and it was extremelty settled. ket's just say that I had a test blast on the way to london at 1am and the book top speed doesn't lie
car is a 57 plate.
I haven't had a "blast" yet, over 1 lepton, will try it out after work.
its more than likely a 163bhp car. if it has the efficent dynamics stuff it will be 175 i.e. the stop start function.
Except it's an auto so it won't have auto start/stop...
hmm,
Couldnt get a good blast, although it's ok at speed I guess.
couple of annoying things, no way of telling if cruise is on or off, no way of telling if wipers are on auto without taking your eyes off the road.
Build quality is reasonable, roof lining has come off a fiesta, dash is made of cheap plastic and the steering wheel buttons feel cheap.
Tom, go and sit in the car, put your foot on the brake pedal and switch the wipers on, I can feel the mechanism/motor/god knows what very firmly through the brake pedal, annoyed me a lot.
it has cupholder which is more then the e46/39.

Fantastic pictures 
How is that any different from your E39?
all you have to do is look at the stalk and see whether the green light is on
it's like complaining that you have to look at the speedo to see how fast you're going
It's not that easy, for me any way, as the wheel is in front of the stalk, meaning I have to move my head about to get a look.
