It is quite sad though in one respect - we'd got to basically peak diesel in terms of how good they are. IMO the best car in the new G30 LCI 5 Series range is without question the 530d* - it's smooth, refined, quick and quiet. But I'd be extremely nervous about buying one now, even though IMO no engine suits the car better.
*In the UK, Of course our European friends get the 540d, which is just as good yet even more powerful...
I agree. Same with the 4l v8 Audi diesel. Imo the best diesel car engine ever made. They had just got it refined to perfection with the twIn turbos and 48v boost system and was only available for around 18 months and now you can’t buy one anymore.
It even sounded nice
