The BMW 5 Series lease car – the best choice for a luxury at the top of its mark

Fall in love with a BMW 5 Series lease car. 

The BMW 5 Series has been around for a while and, in the car world, there’s usually very good reason for that. Now well into its seventh generation, the BMW 5 Series originally came onto the scene in 1972 and has remained a market leader ever since. It’s hard to know whether its popularity stems from the car’s ability to look so handsome you’d blush if it looked at you (maybe it charmed its way to the top spot?), or whether it’s the overall sublime engineering that keeps fans loyal. We think it might be a little bit of both. Either way, the BMW 5 Series makes for a phenomenal lease car.

Driving the BMW 5 Series lease car.

The first thing most of us do when we’re deciding on a lease car is take a look at the outside because, quite simply, it’s right there in front of us. For the BMW 5 Series, we’re going to start under the bonnet. There’s no real reason for this, other than we just can’t wait to tell you about what’s sitting underneath. Our range-topping BMW 5 Series lease car comes ready with a – wait for it – 4.4 litre eight-cylinder engine. That’s big. These are the kind of engines that are most comfortable in racing cars of the past, as not many modern cars have the space to fit such a set up. Rather smugly, the BMW 5 Series pulls it off and then goes on to smash 0-62mph in just 3.8 seconds, so you know it’s making good use of what it’s been given. Top speeds? Nothing less than 155mph, of course.

There are a few other engine options for the BMW 5 Series lease car, so you can size down slightly if you don’t fancy that much power, but either way they all drive with a level of finesse that we’ve just come to expect from BMW.

Once you head off on the road, we know you’ll love the light but responsive level of steering that the BMW 5 Series lease car offers. Paired with a comfortable suspension and options for rear or four-wheel drive, this is a car that can do nothing wrong.

Elegant stylings from the BMW 5 Series lease car.

If we met a BMW 5 Series lease car in a bar, it’s likely that it would tip its hat at us, wink, and tell the bartender that he’ll buy our next round. It’s a handsome sort of lease car that does retain some of the classic charm from earlier vehicle styling. There are touches in between that drag this effortlessly stylish lease choice firmly into the modern day – a slightly split grille sits upon the front end like a proud grin, and chrome embellishment feel like fancy jewellery on this lease car.

There are actually two different body styles in the BMW 5 Series line. One is an elegant saloon with big swooping curves and a sleek silhouette, and the other is the BMW 5 Series Touring - a menacing estate shape that appears intimidating with a chunky edge. Both models feel the height of prestige, but not in a way that seems pretentious and overdone. To sum it up – imagine the BMW 5 Series lease car is your fancy uncle that lives a slightly mysterious lifestyle, is always looking slick and suave and reserves a cheeky charm for anyone in need of impressing. You get the idea.

Inside the BMW 5 Series lease car.

There’s something about the BMW 5 Series lease car’s interior that reserves a classic feel, keeping in some of the knobs and buttons that other manufacturers are deciding to ditch. This will split the two camps – you might hate fussing about with a touchscreen to control absolutely every function in your car, so a few buttons are a welcome feature, or you might be well over in ‘I wish I was an astronaut’ territory, refusing to entertain anything but slick screens for every function. If you’re in the latter camp, the BMW 5 Series does still have that massive screen standing proudly on the dash, but functionality takes over a bit. We think it’s a good thing and rather enjoy the maintaining of a few button features that stop us from getting frustrated on the move, so you’ll have to make your own mind up on that one. Either way, you’ll always get that built in 12.3 inch instrument display and a BMW Live Cockpit Professional Navigation system – impressive stuff.

Slick leather upholstery, plush seats, and touches of silver detailing also add to the slightly classic vibe of the BMW 5 Series lease car. It does feel like the perfect blend of modern and classic styling, offering the best of both worlds. Still, the engineering itself is thoroughly in the present day and you’ll be unable to deny the sheer level of quality throughout. You know when something just feels oh-so-good and perfectly done? This is it.
