It cemented the position of the BMW 5 Series as a true all time classic and consolidated its place at the head of the executive saloon market. It is one of the most highly sought models on the used market. However , with recent launches , prices have been pushed down. If you're smart you can find some real bargains. Until now the BMW 5 Series retained most of the features that made it great , but in 2003 it got a severe overhaul thanks to design boss Chris Bangle.
It also has Park Distance Control and an around view monitor system , similar to Infiniti's Around View Monitor. In addition , the new series has also got Active Roll Stabilisation , which will help in maintaining a level ride nearly under all driving conditions. And to complement this Active Roll Stabilisation , the car is also featured with Active Steering , which uses electronic steering to increase and improve the stability controls acting on the wheel brakes and power. This new model has a class of its own that one should not neglect.
Driving the BMW 1 SeriesThe 1 Series has a very good driving position , sitting lower than most but very comfortable. Radio controls and standard Trip Computer all easily accessible through controls on or around the steering wheel. The diesel engine is a particular highlight with excellent acceleration , top speed and excellent fuel economy ( regularly returning 50mpg+ ). The steering is excellent , immediate and light enough to be comfortable but with enough weight in the control to feel the car's movement. The suspension isn't as forgiving as others but this may be down to the run flat tyres that are standard with all BMW's now.
