Looking to get a second car for the missus, had it with the Ka :o . Now she's decided she wants something completely different, something like an E39 520i or similar.

What other options are there for the budget (similar cars needed - lots of motorway miles to be covered, not really bothered about 0-60 performance or BHP). She'd be more happy with things like leather trim, AC, Cruise control, Climate Control etc etc :) Really want something that will give at least 30mpg and not break down constantly.

Also, is it possible to get a decent example of the E39 for this budget ?

Can you get them this cheap ? I though the x30d models generally tended to be on the higher side.
To be honest im not completely sure, im not one for the price of cars, i seen 520i and i just thought, meh ill suggest a 530d lol

For £5k, you should be able to get an e39 520i's - they'll be early (I.e. non-facelift) and likely high mileage. They are BIG cars though, it will be a bit of a shock from a Ford Ka.
