Zitat von E65 UK

Also what do the E65 sport models have over the SE? I know they have bigger wheels but what else?

The UK E65 Sports have 19inch wheels as standard, different seats with bigger bolsters and a powerer extender to support the thighs. I foudn that pretty poor though.

On the fuel consumption in UK speak I can give you the following guidelines from personal experience on a mix of all roads:

745 - overall 20mpg
735 - overall 22mpg
730 - overall 23.5mpg
The last one is my car and the engine is still very tight at 8k on the clock.
Given that my E38 728 191bhp can return up to 26mpg on the same mix I have hope that this figure will increase just as my E38 did over time. It had had a brand new shortblock just before I bought it and it has only just done 60k now!!

My advice would be to go for a 2003 build car as you get DVD Satnav and electrically adjusted headrests as standard. I got a shot of a 2002 735 and this car did not have this feature yet my 1996 E38 does... a step backwards if ever there was one.

I had contemplated waiting for an E65 with comfort seats but now I have had my E65 for five months I am extremely comfortable in it. I now notice that there is less padding in the comfort seat backs to make space for the motors and when the seat is in an unadjusted state I can feel the comfort seat back is harder than standard.
