Looming hundreds of feet up in Munich's skyline is BMW's headquarters, a vast and impressive building designed to look like four engine cylinders - the configuration that drove much of the brand's early success. BMW has come a long way since 1927, when it produced its first car, the Dixi, shortly to be renamed the BMW 3/15. In 2022, it was awarded 'Best Manufacturer' at the AutoCar Britain's Best Car Awards, and the same year, it triumphed at the WhatCar? Awards, winning more accolades than any other brand. The M5 special edition, celebrating 20 years of BMW motorsport, is one of the rarest M automobiles in the world. See how BMW's maintenance prices compare to Audi and Mercedes in this guide.

The BMW 5 Series stands as a benchmark in executive sedans, with a top speed reaching around 155 mph and an impressive 0-60 mph time of under 5 seconds.

At the 2020 Car of the Year Awards, the 5 Series won in the Executive Car category, earning praise for delivering a superior driving experience.

Car suspension does a few important jobs. It maximises the friction between the tyres and road surface, absorbs the shock from speed and road bumps, provides steering stability and generally gives you and your passengers a more comfortable drive. Find out more about how it does these things in this guide to steering and suspension.The following symptoms could indicate you need to book a car suspension repair: drifting/pulling to one side after corners, continued bouncing after hitting a bump, a generally bumpy ride, and one side of the car sitting lower than the other when it is parked. If your vehicle is difficult to handle, there could be other issues at play, such as incorrect wheel alignment, which is why it's crucial to have the problem checked by an expert. Shock absorbers, leaf springs, coil springs and torsion bars are all suspension components that sometimes need replacing. Shock absorber replacement is one of the most common categories of repair carried out by car suspension specialists.
