Value
Excellent value for money, lots of car for very little outlay.

Driving
A pleasure to drive, just as happy plodding along as blasting up the motorway.
Performance
For a big heavy car it's performance is stunning.

Image
Expect to get pulled on a regular basis if you are a younger driver, the police tend to associate this kind of car with dodgy people for some reason, (being a 6ft 20 stone bald doorman doesn't help).
Comfort
As the 535i sport has the M5 suspension then it is a little harsh, but that's what it's all about, I didn't buy it for comfort, I bought it for performance.
