This was my first time getting a lease car so I was very unsure of the process , thankfully Sarah was fantastic and helped me through it from my initial enquiry to the delivery of the car. She gave me advice , knowledge of the process and most importantly gave me time at the beginning to think if it’s the right thing to do , this was very important to me and was a bug factor in me going ahead with the purchase. Sarah is fantastic!

BMW’s approach to future propulsion systems is, shall we say, holistic. Some might see it as sitting on the fence, but BMW is open-minded about the future, and the company doesn’t want to push customers into any one form of power. It even has hydrogen cars under development.
Anyway, the point is that the new 5 Series isn’t here to tell us what to drive, but to offer customers a choice of different systems to suit their needs. The petrol-powered 520i and the electric i5 models have already been launched, and now it’s the turn of the plug-in hybrid models. Here in the UK we get a choice of two variants, but will they be appealing enough to keep customers from sticking with fossil fuels they know or going all in on electric power?
