Come on, an extra 30k over an X1d for a full brand new F10 5 series, but diesel la....which would you go for?3. or maybe those of us who got the 523i's, 528i's and 535i (not the recond grey imports, thats a different issue)  just paid way too much in order to make the 520d more affordable to the rest who really just wants an F10 that is affordable.Anyway, im sorry if my statement offended some of you guys here on the forum, but what im pointing out is basically how BMW Malaysia seem to work. And its not at all that their sales and after sales service is first class. Far from it. Long way to go, just need to look down south to improve as i send my previous E60 and the Saab93 only to  singapore for service. but my 528i still have to sent to AB la, what to do eh? <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick Out Tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
