So there you have it –– no matter if you want a sumptuous brand new model or a depreciation-beating used car, there'’s a 5-Series to suit all budgets. Last year, the latest model suffered the embarrassment of being less satisfying to own than its predecessor, but it’s now jumped from 10th to fifth place to regain its pride. You love the way your BMW accelerates and stops, and find it a breeze to drive. Reliability could be better, but overall the message is clear the 5 is the executive car to have.
