The diamond key can be charged by either driving the car or by an electric toothbrush. Use the base of the toothbrush ( it has a coil inside) and put that key inside - I am NOT joking. It takes roughly overnight to charge fully as it's a slow charge but it bloody works! The bad point is if you don't use your spare diamond key on a regular basis it will go completely flat and will need battery replacement (DIY only - it's sealed for life)

I own a 2008 530i xdrive with 272hp and 165.000 km since 2017. driving it for 60.000 km now and what a car it is! Apparently the engine is really bad because of the newly introduced injectors but it is still reliable for now, the only things i had to do were 2 xenon lightbulbs, one wheel alignment and a head gasket. The xdrive system is awesome I never lost traction no matter if there was ice, mud or bad tires. I‘m surprised that all the electronics especially the electrical trailer hook, HUD and soft close doors still work to this day! Only problem I currently have is replacing the headlights which cost hundreds of € a piece. Greetings from Germany!

Talking about aircon, many years ago travelling in India in the ubiquitous Hindustan Ambassador taxi, the driver said "do you want aircon", if you said yes they would wind the windows down or drive on the shady side of the road. I doubt any had aircon, and you would be lucky if even the wind down windows worked. Stick to the Tuk Tuks Yes the Beemer looks very good, and of course the indicators worked OK.

I'm not saying Matt doesn't trade honestly but that comment suggests a little naivety. Do you really expect him, or any other You Tuber, to put out videos where they haven't sorted the cars when putting them up for resale ? I don't think that would encourage people to visit their premises somehow. Effectively these are a form of advertising as well as an additional revenue stream. It's just that we voluntarily watch these adverts for entertainment. Caveat Emptor (despite used cars selling legislation).

Just some nerd chat about Holland Park BMW: I used to take my 3 series to BMW "Park Lane" - the fancy showroom was actually on Park Lane in Central London but all servicing was actually done at a much more humble semi-industrial site in Battersea, which later moved to the even less fancy light industrial site at Park Royal. I imagine Holland Park was the location of the fancy showroom before Park Lane.

BMW did such a good job with that model. 21 years later it still doesn't look "old".

The e39 was a peak. This car in that beautiful blue with that silky smooth 6 cylinder from the e39 is quite a steal

Those 2 tone seat colours give away your driver, when’s it going to Rome?as a “fellow” berlingo driver am in anticipatory excitement. We had a 535d as a pool car many years ago, what a beast. The owner of the company kept it as a pool car because he said it would last forever and be reliable. Everyone would make any excuse to drive it. I think these cars were so better looking than now. When this grill comes behind you “ you know it”. I think berlingos will be a classic one day if the govt allow much the same as 2CV6. I am running mine on 99 octane and makes a huge difference a mere 1.6 110 bhp in lesthan a ton.

I love the E60, my favourite 5 series. They've aged incredibly. My grandfather had one like this as his last car, he loved it too 😊

I'd love one of these, they still look good imo.

What a cracking car. Love that colour combination, blue with tan leather, looks really nice. I fully agree that era of 5 series are great car. Hope the cold gets better. Wife’s got Covid, that seems to be making a comeback 🤦🏻‍♂️

What a bargain! very nice example of the 5 series. Be a nice big luxury motor for someone for several years.

That era if twin exhaust is always six pot petrol or diesel, have 323ci for the last 15 years, garage queen now but would never part with, rare sea green and cant beat that era 6 pot for sound and reliability

Matt the first video of yours I ever watched was a review of a BMW 5 series and was brilliant. Got me hooked to HPA entertainment and watched them all ever since especially JLR products, especially gorgeous range rovers 👌

Why would Car Vertical check millions of cars for a model that had a lot fewer than that made?
