3 litre is better than 2 litre. Therefore, 4 litre must be better than 3 litre. And my brother's 6.0 litre Hummer is better than all these? 😭🤔🙈

Because you care more about money than driving pleasure?

I'm more than happy with the driving pleasure of my F32 thank you very much!
Maybe you should go and grab yourself a sense of humour next time you're out and about.

Well that's a lot more interesting a reason for being happy with your car than the £40 difference or whatever once a year.

What's so funny about your comment that I should laugh at?

The 320d I have as a company car saves me £1500 a year over the 330d. Also, it was 320d msport vs 330d sport (in value terms) - I went for the former.

I have a 450bhp per ton car for all the extra driving pleasure I need thankyou 👍

Company car tax is quite different to VED, hence I have a 330e company car that saves me more over a 320d does over a 330d.

VED is the same on a 3L after 2017 (after the first year), so are you saying 2l owners just like paying tax? C'mon I'm sure not all of them are that odd..

Lol, are you going to keep your car forever to avoid a £110.00 tax hike? If nothing else it shows they don't give a crap about emissions. Might as well crack on with a 5.0L V8..

Just joined this thread, but I've got a 3ltr, a massive dick AND an M Performance key case.

Wait, that might be 'I'm a massive dick'....

Wait out...

Tbh I don't give a crap about 3ltr engines and who owns what, all I know is I'm extremely happy with what I have and don't have to go on a forum to talk a load of old bollocks!

You do realise you're on a forum? Talking in a thread about 3l vs. 2l engines pretty much talking a load of old bollocks right? (not specifically sure why they have to be old, but whatever).

If you're happy that's all that matters, I like all sorts of engines from 1.4's to 5.0L's for various reasons and if I want to cruise around in a bloody Kia I will do if I want to. I'm not sure why you'd take a thread like this with anything more than a pinch of salt?

This thread is bizarre!

Although I will say the sdrive M sport 4 pots are the best handling f30s the 335d is the worst (awful actually) and the sdrive 330d probably the sweet spot in terms of grunt/handling.

Well I couldn't comment without adding to the fire.

Most of the bollocks is just banter and regulars having a pop at each other, chill out and take it all with a pinch of salt

It's one of the better forums if you give it a chance
