I really like the newer BMW's and the diesel engines are great... my old dear got rid of her E92 320d with the 177bhp engine and although the TTRS that replaced it is a proper laugh to drive, the BMW was really good fun to drive with the DTC completely off and well finished inside, better than the TT is IMO.

What are the plans for it visually mate??


Cheers,
Grant

cheers we sat in afew audi's vw's etc and the bmw seemed miles ahead in the interior department.

mods wise i want a twin exit back box, lowered a tad and either 19's or 18's its a daily car so cant decide if 19's will be to harsh day to day on a bmw 19's ruined my audi S3's ride
