[QUOTE="55bus, post: 133169, member: 2851"] I have been using an E60 523, have E240 Avantgarde W211 and also had the opportunity to use the E60 530D for a week. Personally, I feel the E240 should be compared to the 523(about the same BHP at 177) and not 525. It is true the E240 has a number of features, but question is are they really useful or nice to have. Each additional feature is an additional possible point of failure if they are not really useful .for example, who use the headlight cleaner or electronic memory seats frequently anyway? In fact, I find the 523 a lot more responsive and nimble vs the E240, and you'd be surprised, a lot more economical in fuel consumption. E240 is more comfortable ina a straight line . E530D? loads of fun!!! If you enjoy driving , this is the one to go for. But the diesel smell is there, somehow it permeates the interior over time. [/QUOTE]
