As per the title. I can't help myself scanning the classifieds for f10's at the moment. Forgetting for a moment that Finance would like to have a chat with Head and Heart about the notion of changing at the moment, Head and Heart have kind of agreed that a '11-13 530d of some description would be a compromise that they could probably both live with. However, there are a few AH5's that pop up in the same searches that would probably meet some of the needs of both without paying a great deal extra for it.

Has anyone else refined a similar thought, and what conclusions did you draw?

Autocar suggests that the AH5 is good - effectively a 535+i, but with lower CO2 classification (useful for VRT, R/T, etc.). Their test conclusion was that the consumption benefit wasn't apparent in the real world and that it was in fact a bit of a dipso. Other than that it seems they liked it and the performance.

Thoughts appreciated
