540 manual to steptronic
Discussion
Numbnuts (Dave) Had a manual, bought a steptronic, now I have bought his steptronic, and he is re-buying his original manual back....Only he and I could do this and both be happy....
I prefer the steptronic, Dave prefers the manual.....I suppose I have a car for manual shenanigans, so fair do's.....

so regretting getting into this argument but here goes.
i want a 540 touring with either Manual or step, whats best ??
I want it to be newish, £10k, angels and leather ??
Angels, don't worry, £300 for hella originals....they fit all cars.
Me...Steptronic - hardly any difference in performance, especially in sport mode or tiptronic...A manual would have to be well driven to tell the difference. I have had 2 manual 5 series, both didn't seem to suit the car. The manual is better on fuel though. (again, my personal opinion only). I don't see it as a sports car, so for me the step is the best. I think the touring would suit the steptronic even more so.
Leather - without question, yes. But I would be surprised to see a 540 without one.
£10k - I reckon T reg.....especially the touring, they fetch a bit more.
