JOY .... if anyone wants a quick car, there are tons of options half the price like the Lancer, type R Hondas, WRX scooby. But for a exec car, IL6 to me is a must la.. at least Though the 5 is not really a luxury liner like the Mighty seven. But I wont be buying a 5 and expect it to behave like a boy racer type car. I.e handles and zip in and out of town Golf GTI. The oilburner version is a trustworthy unit that has seen the success in Europe for many years.Trincy, since you were in UK Before, you should know this as the Diesel always command higher resale value. In My and Sg, Diesels are getting the much needed aknowledgement they deserve.. ppl who still relate driving a oil burner Merc/ BMW with the old Opel Gemini taxi and pink Bas Mini should open their eyes wide open and embrace the changes. Only thing is, oil quality aside, the mechanical maintainence will take times to mature. Have heard a lot of failed turbo, injectors in modern Diesel after 2-3 years ownership and owner chucking away the car at dirt cheap price....Just be prepared that when the engines run some flu or cold, not all " Doctors" can fix them and will leads to maltreatment and labelled terminal.....</blockquote>
