Description

This 2011 BMW 520d M Sport delivers the composed handling and punchy mid-range performance you expect from a 5 Series. The 2.0‑litre diesel and six-speed manual combine for smooth, confident motorway cruising and responsive overtakes, while M Sport suspension gives a noticeably sharper, more engaging feel without compromising everyday comfort.

Inside the cabin the saloon balances luxury and practicality with supportive sports seats, dual-zone climate control and a well laid-out driving position for long journeys. With strong economy, a spacious boot and refined manners, this BMW suits executives or families seeking a driver-focused, practical executive car.
