Default BMW 535d - anyone got/had one?

The time is drawing near for me to pension off my beloved little runabout. After much discussion (arguing) Mr LPH and I have just about agreed that our next car will be a used BMW 535d.

He originally wanted a 3 series 2 door, I said no way as I hate 2 door cars and I'm not driving a poky little roller skate. I wanted another 7 series as I've loved this one, so the 5 series is the compromise and as Stu piles on the miles driving to work at the moment the diesel seems a sensible choice.

The only essential on my list is memory seats - at 5'2" sharing a car with a man 6'2" I cannot go back to having to faff about adjusting the seat/mirrors/steering wheel every time we swap over. It's the best feature on the current car (aside from the secret sweetie compartment.)

So has anyone on here got any experience and opinions of the 535? And I don't just want loads of abuse about being a BMW owner as obviously I don't use my indicators or mirrors, I park across 2 spaces, cut people up and try and beat everything away from the lights - that goes without saying! (And that's just on my GS)
