G30 520d to 530d

A few similar discussions on this subject I see here..

I've had my G30 520d m sport xdrive for about a year. It was 3 years old when I purchased.
First few months really happy with it... Until
I went to over take on a A road..
I was in sports mode and pedal to the floor
There was what I thought loads of clear straight road to perform the manouver.. But goodness it turned out to be pretty close.

Anticipating the comments here, that this is more of an issue with my judgement, rather than the cars ability....
But I should have over taken and been back in way before I was.. And without video evidence, you'll just have to take my word for it.. Lol

Since then I haven't felt satisfied with it and a constant feeling of it's not quite enough power for size and weight of the car.
Don't get me wrong this is in most situations a lovely car - in my opinion... But I'm left with that constant, back of my mind not completely happy feeling..

So.. I've decided, test drive a like for like 530d this weekend, and probably bite the bullet..

Any other 520d m sport xdrive owners felt same?! Or traded up to 530d?
