Yes, it's tempting to go the touring route and it's a very good looking machine. I double checked how many kids I have last night and, after two full re-counts, the highest number I counted was none.
I'm a bit of a fussy bugger and I don't want to tow around 65kg of extra weight all the time, when I'm likely to use the extra space once or twice a year. The 330d touring I drove pitched a bit too much for me and didn't feel as planted at the back through rough surfaced bends as the saloon I'd driven earlier. Not a vast difference, but enough to matter to me.
I'm quite lucky as I have mates with estates or 4x4s, so we tend just to swap on the rare occasions when I need space - for the price of a bottle of wine :-)
I can't wait for the 35d to come out. I have a two year lease deal through BMW and my dealer says I can upgrade at no cost after 18 months. If they build it, the 335d will be an incredible car - I'll be camping outside my dealer to get the first one ...
