5 series BMW courtesy car!

[Buxton2901]

So my motor is going in for repairs tomorrow finally and I'm getting a new 5 series beamer as a hire car!

Had a few arguments with the accident management company that my insurance company appointed. Mainly regarding replacing both headlights as they are stone chipped to hell and replacing one will make the car look stupid but they won't budge on this. Nor will they replace the tyre on the other side! Even though u should never change only one wheel on the same axle.
but hay ho fingers crossed the repairs go smoothly and it comes back in better shape. Front bumper could have done with a re spray anyway lol

You won't want it back once you've got used to the space of the 5 series haha

I know it's an audi forum but the 5 series are amazing. Had one as a loan car whilst my bmw was getting repaired once. Auto box is great, seriously considered buying one at the time.

You should really change all four at the same time in a quattro to stop the centre diff overworking with the different circumferences..

Doesn't hurt to try something else, I recently had a VW Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI hired for my Audi UK while they fixed my A4 Avant. It was like a bus but nice to drive.

This 5 series is nice to drive but is not as quick as my car! Hopefully mine will be fixed but all nice in a couple of weeks lol

Pity it isn't the new G30 model.

thatinterior though... you can get better design in a 10 year old lower class audi (A4)...
