Anyway, we've gotten a bit off-topic here - bottom line, OP should try the 320d as per his original selection and if he likes it, great, if not there are other decent engine options available |

@Mproudfoot thanks for such a balanced response, it will probably help me sleep better! I think 320 is a better option for me at the moment. I'll miss the smoothness of 6 cylinders but I have to remember I am changing for economy! 320d is a great car, just not a sports car.
At least I've added adaptive sus (the whole point of this thread!). Thanks for all your input though you crazy 330d mothers! |

I test drove a 335d X drive without adaptive suspension and on B roads it just felt as though the suspension couldn't keep up. The car felt to be lunging everywhere. I personally cannot handle the feeling of the car rolling around whilst the suspension is expanding/compressing in the opposite way... Especially with a big heavy 6 cylinder out front. Ordered my 335d X drive LCI with Adaptive suspension and It's the perfect option. It really allows it to be soft when in comfort on the motorway, and then stiff and responsive when pushing hard. It's worth it in the long run!

If you go x-drive don?t forget to spec up a good ladder so you can get in and out easily

One of the benefits of xdrive is that if you've left the car at home and have a parcel delivery which needs to be left somewhere ....... A most convenient & safe place is sat on top of a wheel under the wheel arch ! it's amazing what can fit there .... lawn mower, playstation
