is it because many take offence to a diesel 3 series being faster than a stage 3 cossie?

Yes basically, if you think hes bad on here visit pistonheads ( i believe he is called 335dxb or similar) he annoyed basically the whole ph community with the constant overhyping of 'his' car. He made proposterous claims about the performance of the car after no more than a generic remap etc. I am however not having a perosnal go at the chap himself I have never met him and have no personal experience of his car. On a brighter note I would imagine the 335d to be an excellent real world performance car.

a 535d has about 286bhp and over 400lbft iirc. id guess a simple remap or chip would make a good difference.

I'm sure people have seen around 350bhp and huge torque from a remap. They are quicker than a lot of the cars on the road once rolling!

Surely its more to do with it being a FORD forum? Noone gives a flying fuck about a diesel bmw on a ford forum...
Go and 'hype it up' to the other bellend bmw drivers?

Firstly, age would have nothing to do with anything said.
Secondly, Where did i say every bmw driver is a bellend? I just said to tell other bellend BMW drivers. Hinting he tell the bmw drivers that are bellends...
Most of the bmw drivers round here are bellends, doesnt mean they all are. Couple of my mates have bmw's, they're not bellends. Maybe learn to read whats being said instead of assuming? remember, to 'assume' makes an 'ass of u and me'

As Clarkson has said, the bellends seem to have swapped their 'BMs' for Audis now. I'm tailgaited by at least one testosterone-fuelled Audi driver every day.

"Go and 'hype it up' to the other bellend bmw drivers?" you dont know who hes talking to though do you? so how do you know hes talking to some bellends? so either your saying all BMW drivers are bellends or you know the people he talks to which one is it?





"Surely its more to do with it being a FORD forum? Noone gives a flying fuck about a diesel bmw on a ford forum.."

use the search button theres alot of interest on here about bmw's so if i can refer you to the earler comment you made ""remember, to 'assume' makes an 'ass of u and me""
