1998 BMW 5 Series SE review from UK and Ireland
"A proper car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear cup holder pops out, and ahhhhh that's it.
General comments?
Steptronic gear box took a while to get used to, but for around town it is perfect.
Done some serious miles in last year, frequent drives from Kent to Nantes in France.
The BMW makes the journey a pleasure, I look forward to the drive (500 lovely motorway miles)
The car is as solid as a rock, and makes you smile from ear to ear when the kick down appears.
