Have recently bought my first bmw after 2 Mercedes in the last 10 years. I can say I am certainly say not disappointed. It's a 2 and a half year old 535d touring. Everything works as it should and the performance and handling is something I never experienced in the Mercs. My only criticism if you can call it that is the 19" alloy. They make an awfull lot of noise. The other is they seem to be easily damaged. I've already got kerb damage on one of the rears. Does anyone know of a good refurbish agent in the Newcastle area. My previous car car was merc ml and was so used to being able to mount small kerbs while parking and unfortunately on one occasion I forgot and you guessed it. I bought the car from stratstone at silver link and must say they are very easy people to deal. Got a good part exchange deal and the car has nearly all the extras I was looking for. Any help or advice would certainly be appreciated. Phil Wallace
