Whats the thoughts?

Looks like they've grafted the front of Z4 front onto the E90 rear. The bonnet looks far too long/low for the car and the bonnet shut line looks pretty terrible.

The interior looks very nice though.

Well the current 5 ain't that pretty so they may as well stick to form

If thats anything like the 520d's claimed figues that'll be more like 50mpg in the real world - not bad, but a far cry of the official figure. Lots of grumblings on BMW forums about the MPG figures from their more recent cars (nothing new, but when you see 69mpg claimed you have to ask is it actually attainable).

I think its about time the official MPG test system was updated, and I'm sure they are using engine maps to 'detect' a EU driving cycle test to get better figures.
