Excellent

This was my 20th birthday present from my parents, and I couldn't be happier with it, or the service we have had from BMW Bowker. There were a few teething issues, such as the passenger door speaker that needed replacing, but they fixed with no quarrel, and gave me a 528i as a courtesy car!
One thing I have found strange on this car however, is that I get a better economy running in Sport Mode in comparison to ECO PRO. In ECO PRO, it shows a 'miles saved' in the dash. However, this is just a load of r******, and as EP reduces the power of the engine, you have to work it harder to get up to speed and up hills, therefore opening the valves more and increasing the petrol into the cylinder in comparison to using Sport Mode.
Hope this is helpful
