Hey foggy, you've had your car for a while - and no full review yet!

As you're the only person on here who has jumped ship to a G30, would be interested to hear your thoughts?

It's on a long list of things to do

I'm still trying to get the M3 out of my head and stop comparing it as well

Hi Foggy, just had a look (on line as far away ) at your old car, they say all is repaired at the rear, they said some recall!!!, not sure if that was B/shit or not.
When was it registered please and how many miles did you actually do in it?. thanks, ............. running in service miles!!?.
May have a punt on it once back in the UK at the end of the month.

Not true. See here.

Though I have been in S Am nearly all the time since. Will update shortly, but more likely on the G30.bimmerpost forum.

Sorry didnt realise that!
But under your user name on the left it still says "F31 335d Luxury"

So no-one knows you have a G30, unless they read that thread.

Notechy how does the 530d compare performance-wise to the 335d? The torque is roughly the same although BHP is a bit down I guess.

I'd say utter bullshit!!

All they have done there is seen the diff has been replaced and presumed it was the diff recall.

Where does it say it's fixed due to recall?

When I dropped it off it had done 2754 and that didn't increase much more whilst it was a the dealers trying to be fixed, but I see it has jumped up by around 1000 miles so not sure where that came from. Think it only went from Warrington to Tamworth.

Was registered 1st September 2016.

Oh running in was a 1250 I think it was. That car has never been thrashed once. Not by me anyway.
