Done a deal on a 330d tourer against my vx220 turbo so hopefully if all goes well and its not a piece of shit when i get there i will be a member of passionbmw on tuesday.

Now all i need is a remap and some csl alloys lol, i've already been on motorsport developments site but no prices lol

Happy economical days

 

Here is a link to a local 1 .

Congrats on getting a real car

 

msd do some amazing work on these!

 

I only want it as a work horse lol cant fit a tow bar to a vx220 lol

My mates have already started taking the piss and i aint even got it yet lol

 

I hope so cause it will be the first thing to get done i think lol

 

Very good choice of motor.

Nick who used to work at MSD has one, MSD mapped with a big exhaust and intercooler, made 460lb/ft of torque. Am sure Nick even said it was still on the standard turbo last time i spoke to him.

Stu even said it keeps up with his M5 to 100mph!! Thats silly for a diesel!!

 

Ł325 I expect is the going rate.
Is it early or late?
Fancy one next, that or S4 estate thing.

 

yeah, msd were talking 300bhp, 400lbft, and 75mpg when i was up there, from a re map!


im sure this will be my next motor

 

75mpg?
Lol.

 

on light cruise yes i believe so

 

They wont when they get beaten by a diesel tourer

 

75mpg.... that might be the e90 320d mate??

I cant see the E46 330d putting that out at light cruise, even after mapping has optomised the consumption. It'd do 45-50mpg tops on a very light cruise.

If its getting a genuine 60mpg+ on motorway duty then I'll book my old dears E46 330d Cabrio in because she's getting 36-37mpg at present.


Cheers,
Grant

 

I had my E46 330D remapped and it went VERY VERY well

 

Good choice of car IMO, welcome to the majority of over 50's on here

 

I think your mates will be in for a shock once it's had a remap and abit of tweaking.

Probably one of the best engine/saloon combinations available (In a Diesel).

 

Its an early one i think? i aint to clued up about them tbh but just want a big nice comfy motor to blast about in thats economical. heres a ink to it anyway
