Wifeys new Msport

Very nice looking car.

I really don't mean to rain on your new car post. But. I have always had issues with any manufacturer taking a normal/econo car and plastering the word sport on it. Or taking a performance sports platform then remove the performance engine and mounting a rubberband in it's place. Ford did this in the 80's with the mustang. Chevy with the camaro. I suppose I'm just old school when it comes to such things. I think a "sport" model should have some sport in it to back up the sport moniker.

No problem feel a bit like that myself the M designation should only be on a M3,M5 etc but i didnt get a to choose this one picked and paid for by the Mrs :)
 
nice motor.. i really like them, they look quite big compared to previous model almost E60 5 size
 
fab colour. If anything like the 520d it'l be a good drive too.

is it a 2L 4 pot twin turbo underr the hood with 170 ot more ponies?

Very nice.

Wee note on the new estoril. I think if you parked it next to a z3 or e46 in estoril the new one would be different. The reason BMW didn't have it on the last series of cars was because they couldn't reproduce the colour with the newer paints. They have since found a solution but it is not exactly the same. BMW anorak fact.

The 320d is one of the quickest 4 pot diesels around. They seriously shift with a remap. No reason why they shouldn't have sport in the name, even though it just refers to the trim level.

Getting my 125d M Sport delivered on Christmas Eve.
