I have to disagree about the 5 series being better than the 3 and I’ve had both,
Interesting. Maybe different cars suit different people better, or newer generation cars move the game on significantly. I’ve had 3 or 4 of each and I certainly couldn’t knock any of the 3 Series but the 5’s were a definite step up for me. In fact I had a 7 Series once and actually went back to a 5 Series afterwards as I preferred it, so I guess it figures that some people will prefer a 3 over a 5 series! My last 5 Series was as close to a perfect car as I have ever had. I say close, because I once got stuck in snow in it. Rear wheel drive cars are a joy in most weathers, but snow is a nightmare ?
