From 520i to 540i

So after 2 years of leasing a 520i, my lease has expired and the car is due back.

Overall the car has been great - with the exception of one thing - serious lack of power.

After considering my options, I had initially decided to move into another 5 series - but this time a 520d MHT.

That was until I put a deposit down on a 540i xdrive.

Unfortunately not been able to test drive it yet, but once things get back to normal that should be sorted out pretty quickly. So going from a car with no options to loads of stuff.

Seems to be a good spec as well:
Bluestone Metallic
Comfort Pack
M Sport Plus Pack
Premium Pack
Technology Pack
Piano black - bmw ind
Ambient air
Ceramic finish for controls
Split-folding rear seats
Four-zone automatic air conditioning
Ivory White Nappa leather

Interested to read the other owners on here talking about mpg in the low 30's. In my 520i over 2 years, I managed 35.9mpg. Not massively great and miles away from the figures quoted.
