Well first let me say that I dont like BMW as a Company, and i would rather get the bus than drive a car that has run flats and m sport suspension, however the 730 is a great car and ive had a few over the years, however i would think that you should be able to get a younger lower mileage Jag which is more comfortable and a lovely drive for the same money, but it wouldn’t do for us all to be the same so, make sure you drive them yourself and get the one you like 👍 ps thanks for watching
Looking to get a 2010 730D , s class 320 or a8 3.0 tdi. which one would you recommend for comfort and which one would you say has the best soundproofing? thank you! great video by the way !
Difficult choice, both great cars, i think you would be very pleased either, get the lowest mileage, best condition, best service history for your budget, (s class best soundproofing, audi best drive,
Stop thinking and go for it. I’ve just bought a 2009 730d and it’s amazing. I found a bargain with 22000kms on the clock for 21000€. My mechanics can’t believe it haha I’m not new to BMW nor their 3 liter diesel engines, but quality materials and the ride of this one is at another level.
@@qiqeh Hi, Im thinking to buy one as well, but do you think that 6 speed auto is good enough? 2012 8-speed auto is much faster and economical on paper, but I can't stretch my wallet that much
@@josipsruk6011mine has the 6 speed gearbox and it's ok. Very smooth. I had a 430d with the 8 speed and it shifts definitely faster but on this kind of car I don't think that's important. Regarding the fuel economy you can check my records here www.spritmonitor.de/en/detail/1059946.html
johndoe5743 Based on my knowledge and experience with these cars, No its not true, they are as reliable as any other vehicle, and cost just the same to run
The best onboard camera ever 👍
thanks, flattery will get you everywhere :-)
Barrie I am thinking of buying the BMW 7 series or Mercedes s class which one do you prefer
depends on year really, but mostly i prefer the S Class. 7 Series is a very good car though
Our Barrie, thoughts on 2011 Jag XJ 3.0 d 🆚 2011 BMW 730d? Thanks.

Seems to have a fair bit of road noise for a luxury motor.
i use a professional audio recording system, it tends to actually amplify any noise the car makes and it seems noisier than it really is
which one would you choose, a8 or this bmw
i like them both to be honest, but i did get to use an A8 with the Lamborghini engine in, and i would deffo choose that one
what is the sweater you are wearing. I like it.
i think it is an Armani one that ive had for a few years and now wear for work sometime
Good review.
thank you
What year car is this

Is it true they are highly unreliable? Is this true just for the 740 and 750? Is it expensive to run?
