Ashley1995 Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 It's finally here! Well okay, its been here a couple of weeks now but i am only just getting around to posting. After what felt like the longest 7 weeks ever. The car is amazing. That iconic 3 litre straight 6 is a magnificent engine, 0-60 in 4.8 seconds, 340bhp, 500nm. The ride is great for such a well handling car, firm but not bone crashing. I have added some gloss black performance grilles and some gloss black AutoID performance style mirrors.

TriggerFish Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 Swap for a lovely E30?! I can even throw in a free 330d to sweeten the deal? Looks lovely though! Worth it over the 120d for day to day use, or is the fun more to be had on 'special purpose' drives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth it 100%, with the manual it's great to drive all the time. It just 'wants to be driven' if that makes sense. it's really easy and comfortable to drive around town and then turns into a complete animal in sport when hooning it. The exhaust valves open, you get bangs and crackles, rev matching on downshifts. The only downside is the fuel, commuting through town gets me about 24mpg... long motorway run gets around 33.
