Current 5 Series owner that doesn't like the new 5 series
Discussion
Hi Guys
In January I shall have saved up all my pocket money and it will be time for me to buy a new car, so hoping for some advice
I currently own a 530d Msport Manual and previously I owned the 530i Msport Auto, I have thoroughly enjoyed them both and I was looking forward to the new M5 but I just do not like the new 5 series, I don't know why it just does not inspire me at all, I even prefer the new 3 series but no M4 yet.
So I have started looking at the E63 I really like the interior, I'm not so sold on the face lift something looks weird about it, if the 4matic version was available in the UK I think that would probably sway me to get one but a new one is going to be at the top of my budget and for a car that I am not completely sold on I'm not sure if I should take the leap.
My last option is the probably the slowest of the bunch which is the C63 I have always really like this car, my friend bought one when they first came out and I think it looks great and the exhaust note is music to my ears, however I tend to like bigger cars.....but as I am palming my 5 series off to my wife the size isn't really an issue. The only other concern is the new model being released next year which will cause me some worries on depreciation.
So Im just after some ideas/suggestions of what the best thing for me to do?

I forgot to mention I need a car with at least 4 seats as I have a young child...also I really like saloons for some reason don't like coupes much for some reason.
My uncle works at Land Rover, father worked there for years too, neither of them would buy a car made by them (despite very good staff discount), few years ago I decided to ignore their advice buy a Range Rover Sport, worst mistake I ever made......so won't ever be going back to them.

Genuine question. What does that mean to you? In my opinion there appears to be few cars that work better as a package!
Put it like this.There were 6 pupils and 2 instructors on a 2 week "security chauffeuring course" Not a single person liked the car as a driver.
I cannot put my finger on it.
We also had an A6 which was much better.
Also 275 section rear tyres on a 2 liter diesel, i mean, really?
