How good of a choice is an E39 for a first car as a tall driver?
I'm looking to get a job and hopefully buy a car by the end of summer, and the E39 has been on my radar for a while. I'm 200 cm tall (6'7), so fitting properly in cars is a big issue for me, especially with legroom, as my knees touch the steering wheel in all the smaller cars I've driven (Suzuki Swift, MK4 Golf, but I almost fit normally in our 2024 Corolla). Since older BMW parts are a dime a dozen where I live, the E39 stands out as an especially good choice to me. Would you guys recommend it? I was specifically looking at the 525d

CC Earth
Creative Central: Earth is a small but growing Java Edition server on a 1:500 scale map of the Earth. It uses Towny to create towns and nations. Our server is focused on delivering a geopolitical experience based around building and diplomacy, with no war or wilderness PVP in the Overworld. Our goal is to ensure that our community continues to thrive. Most plugins we use are developed in-house by our developers to offer a more personalized feel.
Here are some unique features that we offer:
- Gold-based economy: The gold you mine is essential to the server’s economy.
- Focus on town building and the economy: There is no war system, with a strong emphasis on collaboration and roleplay.
- No wilderness PvP: You don't have to worry about losing your stuff in the wild!
- Online map: A live, dynamic map you can visit to view the state of the world in real time.
————————————————————
Our focus is to keep the gameplay as simple as possible while keeping it engaging and fun! We have semi-regular updates, and there are no seasons, so the map does not reset. The map is very large and mostly empty, so major cities are yours to claim! If you would like a server focused on diplomacy and building rather than conflict, this server is just for you.
Hope to see you there!

How common are refund scams?
We're a bit suspicious of the guests who just left a day or two ago after we found out that they lied about a problem with the boiler (it was left on at 70°C, worked completely normally, but they tried to fake an issue with it). We've already almost got swindled when a guest left a bad review falsely claiming that she got bitten by bed bugs (upon deratization, no bed bugs were found at all, and she posted a fake photo) in order to try and get a refund days after she left, but thankfully, she ended up still paying the full price and didn't manage to pull off her con. Since then, we've had our guard up high, and now we're in fear over the possibility of it happening again.
How often did you guys have refund scam scares?

There were some very touching testimonies at the end, and some music to keep people entertained. The attendance was as big as ever, easily in the hundreds of people, and there were no counterprotests this time around. It coincided with the Statehood Day, so there were some really big celebrations too, and a lot of flags visible. I also carried a banner, which was a bit hard to control due to the strong wind
