Don't be sorry.........how we feel about engine sounds is pretty subjective and while many people are accustomed to the sound of performance cars being powered by petrol engines, some of us can appreciate that because diesels sound different to their petrol counterparts, that doesn't necessarily make them sound "
bad"...
This 5-series..........did you make a mental note of which engine was powering it? Could've been the 4-cyl, 2.0 diesel...
