2004 BMW 5 Series 530i review from Bangladesh
"Looks of this car are to die for"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
One of my 19" front rims cracked at 15000 kilometers.
The 'Michelin' Run-Flat tires seem to puncture every few months.
Rear seats are uncomfortable.
The dashboard is very boring.
The 'iDrive' is quite complicated.
General comments?
The acceleration is very fast along with agile handling.
Quite comfortable ride.
Very bright Bi-Xenon headlamps.
