[QUOTE="drskumar, post: 396168, member: 19103"] For sometime I've been toying the idea of getting a 530D. I luv the spec. Haven't test driven one but from what i have gathered it is one superb car. Nearest is I have test drove 320D and I must say it was just as good as 325. Only if we had Euro 4 diesel i would not hesitate to get one. Test drove passat CC for 240K with 5 years warranty i think it is a value buy. Performance wise it is better than 325 but handling and build quality bmw is any time better. Passat cc frame less door feels very flimsy. I did not get the confident feel when i close the door. Frameless door of cc is putting me off. There is one 06 530D for sale done about 80K for about 200K. My only fear is will it be a reliable car as my work requires me to be at work within 15 minutes late nights(eg 3 am). So far my accord so reliable never have broken down or fail to start. Just that got no ump to drive. Further more i'm looking for a safer car. My usage of any car is rather low about 15K a year an only takes 10 to 15 minutes to reach my work place and hardly any traffic. Is it easy to maintain and repair 530D? Can any other than autobavaria repair 530D? I appreciate any feedback from those who have any experience with 530D. thanks sk [/QUOTE]
