Buyer's notes
Target Price team says:
What is it? That's a question you're likely to be asked fairly frequently with the BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo. BMW says it’s for people who want something more versatile than a saloon, but who are put off by the bulk of an SUV.
The entry-level 242bhp 3.0-litre diesel model (badged 530d GT) is the pick of the range, but BMW also offers a 295bhp 3.0-litre diesel (535d GT), a 302bhp twin-turbo 3.0-litre petrol engine (535i GT) or a 403bhp twin-turbo 4.4-litre V8 (550i GT).
The options list runs to pages and the Adaptive Drive suspension system would be the first thing we ticked, because it greatly improves the 5 GT’s ride and handling. The head-up display which, among other things, beams sat-nav instructions onto the windscreen, is also worth considering.

A potent engine with reasonable running costs – sounds like a dream ticket, doesn't it? Shame the GT is let down by so-so dynamics.
