Time to get rid of my old workhorse 240 Volvo. I'm considering either a BMW 5 SERIES 2.5I SE PETROL MANUAL or a MERCEDES C CLASS 2.8 PETROL MANUAL ELEGANCE as potential replacements. Both are saloons, the same age ('95), almost identically priced and will cost a similar amount to insure.
I favour the BMW, but before I make a final decision and hear "What did you want to go and buy one of those for", I wondered if anyone had any knowledge of either model's strengths or weaknesses.
Thanks.
