Bit odd, but I've seen quite a few 530d's with a M5 style exhausts. Lots and lots of diesel Range Rovers too which have something custom put on driving round Chelsea. Why?

Is it a real exhaust, or a big fake tailpipe with a downturned peashooter in it?

Well I guess for the 4x4 people it makes their 'Chelsea Tractors' actually sound like one.

My dads diesel has five cylinders, one turbot, and four exhausts. To say it makes my OCD twitch is an understatement. It does look quite cool though, well it would if there was a v8 under the bonnet to match.

You could have added 'convertible' to the description to make it sound even more incongruous. What a weird spec. Anyway, the Audi A6 BiTDI exhaust sounds fantastic.

The Audi V6 TDI sounds pretty good for an oil burner.
