Nice one
What's the spec of the new one and any initial comparisons between old and new?

I keep thinking should I change our e53 for a e70, but I still prefer the shape of the e53 for some reason.

What model/spec is the newer one, I prefer that to the facelifted E53, though I prefer my older E53 to the facelifted one as the grill looked 'stuck on' the later E53
E30 320i
E36 325i Coupe
E46 330i SE
Now an E53 4.6iS

The 70 looks so much bigger than the 53 but then that is probably because it is !
