Diesel is fine, had many Bimer oil burners, but no diesel can match the feel of true Bimer V8 petrol at any speeds or bends. After 3.5k rpm oiler gets flat. Hard every day driving + high mileage means high maintenance costs for oilburners. Diesel high quality is a must. 35sd too many moving parts - two turbos, two intercoolers, lots of pipes several fuel filters, so lots of stuff to go wrong.
