Two great cars, at two completely different jobs... if you dont need the economy or the more relaxed drive of the diesel and can justify the extra few grand to buy an equivalent spec/condition M3 then I'd say go for the M-powered car.

If you do over 12k per year then the 330d is probably more sensible with the way things are financially just now... will be less of a drain on cashflow when it comes to fuel and maintenance on it.


Cheers,
