BMW 5 Series 2021
The 2021 BMW 5 Series diesel (G30 generation) is a capable executive saloon with a refined engine, but diesel variants have shown more electrical gremlins and emissions system complexity than petrol models. Ownership experience is generally positive for those with warranty support, though out-of-warranty repairs can be expensive. Diesel servicing is costlier due to AdBlue top-ups, DPF cleaning cycles, and tighter component tolerances.
