2007 BMW 730 730D SE SAT NAV

The 7-series has always been one of the best handling cars in its class. This is no exception. They can change or tweak the looks but the person buying one of these is looking for the mix of sport and power for which the car is renowned. On the road is where it shines and for such a large car it is nimble and agile. It feels like you’re driving a smaller car. The steering is well-weighted, the ride is supple and there’s minimal body roll on corners. The 7-series comes with a lot of technology and standard kit, including the new iDrive system. This takes some getting used to, but once you do, it works well. The interior has limousine-like space, it’s comfortable and elegantly designed.
