2002 BMW 5 Series Sport review from UK and Ireland
"Awesome"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Parking Sensor Failure.
General comments?
The moment I saw the car I knew it was time to sample a BMW. 14k for a car like this is immorally cheap. I don't envy the poor guy who bought it new.
The engine sings like a true Bavarian straight six, and goes like to clappers (70mph in third, floor it...Oh the noise...), handles solidly and predictably and is practical and extremely comfortable too.
