335D Touring! I had one until last September. You will not be disappointed. 0-60 in under 5 seconds, overtaking ability that takes your breath away and all the while giving nigh-on 50 to the gallon (unless you're really bored).
Has more torque at idle than most motors do at max!
And all this in a diesel estate with loads of luggage space and some ingenious ways of using the luggage net etc to maximise usability.
I do love a dirty diesel, my mates got a remapped 535d 2009 touring, just over 400bhp and 600ftlb and it pulls like a train!enuff_zed said:HU51A_FU said:Been looking at the BMW 340i or M140i or a 335D/i Touring... :?mr.tourette said:bittersweet sale I'm sure, just make sure you get a family bus that you can have bit of fun in when you're (rarely

What year was yours and what was the tax like? Servicing bills?
Thanks!

67-plate. Got it brand new on PCP seriously discounted as it was a failed fleet order. For comparison, it should have cost nigh on £50k, but if i'd paid in full and kept it, it would have been around £36k. Just lucky to be in the right place. Went in looking at a 120d and came out with that instead for nearly £100 a month less!
Which kind of lessened the tax fright!!!
Bit of a steal then! Yeah really just depends on the monthly's later on this year, Mrs has told me we cant have a touring as its "Too Long" for her to drive.enuff_zed said:HU51A_FU said:

As I'm sure you're aware, its hardly any different and not noticeable when you're driving it.
Handles well too. Sell her on the 'safety' of the X-drive system and the fact it's so quick it overtakes and is in safely well before a shorter car would be.
My missus absolutely loved it. Though she did find herself inadvertently doing 140 on the M4, thinking it was about 80! :roll:
