Any e39 Touring owners considering an F11?

Evening all.

I said farewell to my e39 Touring today. It has been in my keep for longer than any other; a sad day, though its replacement arrives at the end of the month - an F11

Just wondered if any other e39 owners share my view that the F10/F11 is the spiritual successor to the e39 more so than the e60/e61 that came in between? Don't get me wrong, I did (and do) like the Bangle era cars, in particular the 5, but I couldn't get on with the interior somehow...

I absolutely share your view. Love my E39, cannot get on with the E60 at all. Ended up trying an E92 instead but that didnt work either. The F10 is a fantastic car and just feels like a next-gen E39. Even parked up next to each other the E60 looks the odd one out and the F10 just seems to have taken so much of the E39 and then just improved on it in the way you'd hope 7 years of time would.

I did worry it was just nostalgia making me think the E60 was pants. But nope, loving the F10 has shown me that it's just that the E60 is pants.

We have a 34 and a 39, the 34 imho is superior to the 39, then we got an F10, albeit a saloon it felt like the successor to the 34, like the series should have gone E34-F10/11

If I had the money there would be an F11 sat on my drive right now.
