I was this >< close to ordering the ActiveHybrid3. The thought of that amazing hybrid technology combined with the 6 cylinder petrol had me really interested. It appealed to my geeky side and the petrolhead in me. Unfortunately it would have been more or less the standard car and no toys. In the end the 330d M Sport won out as that's where the offers were.
