We had an E53 3.0D for three years and that was great. Only looking for a new car as that was damaged when a wheel fell off (my fault).
Have also had a Mitsubishi diesel for 12 years. Now, THAT is high maintenance - service every 5,000 KMs.
Unfortunately that too dies last weekend. Not having a good run with cars.
At the moment we only have my son's Dodge (not very reliable) and my d 1958 Austin. Our most reliable car is 63 years old!!
