Q. Does BMW 5 series got scratched from downwards on speed bumps?

The 520d managed a beautiful balance between an enthusiast’s delight and a luxury sedan but will the 530d’s additional horsepower and torque shift the focus back to the driver?

Does the new 520d juggle between the responsibilities of luxury and sportiness better than before?

Is the 2.0-litre petrol motor good enough for the 5 Series?

The new BMW 530d is bigger, meaner and faster than its diesel sibling, and as a bonus it's pretty efficient too

The 2013 facelift of both the BMW 5 Series and the Mercedes E-Class have made them better cars. But, has it given any particular model an edge over the other? We have the diesel versions of both cars to find out.
