[QUOTE="pratt, post: 464434, member: 21006"] I would strongly discourage the diesel models as our Diesel quality is still below par and the E70 2007 UK makes are not "tuned" to accept our diesel so in the long run I guess it's not healthy for the car unless you change the diesel filter frequently. Unlike the LCI E90 diesels which are more susceptible to our Euro 2M diesels. But the torque is so tempting :p But having said that, the petrol 3.0 N52 is actually sufficiently powered too in my opinion with the 265bhp and 315 torque, flooring the pedals takes about 7.8secs, not too bad for a 2 ton vehicle. But I love the sound of the 6 pots petrol. Ya better double check on whether the car is accident free otherwise it'll cost a fortune repairing/replacing parts like the adaptive drive, brake systems or the DTC. Do keep us updated on your UDM shopping :) [/QUOTE]
