Buying a 330d - advice needed
Hi everyone,
I'm going to be purchasing my first BMW - a 330d, but I need some help on choices please. I don't like how high the xDrive sits - so will stay away from this if possible. I'll be fitting ACS springs regardless as I like the lowered look. Also want 19" alloys - so will likely buy these at some point if they don't come with them - probably used or after-market. I'll only be covering about 10k miles a year max. 10-15 min drive x2 a day on 40mph roads, dual carriageways most other times - and the odd long drive every 3 months. I know, short drives aren't great for this car - but I really want a straight 6 and I hear the 328i isn't a great driving experience - and I do want a good driving experience! I want to keep the car for 5 years and I want to minimize the cost of ownership in that time period. Bearing in mind that I have up to £20k to spend, what would be my best option out of the below? These are all from a dealership which is close by to me (Hertfordshire) - but if you have alternatives, then please feel free to suggest them. https://www.cargiant.co.uk/car/bmw/330d/WN14UXS https://www.cargiant.co.uk/car/bmw/330d/DV64OTZ https://www.cargiant.co.uk/car/bmw/330d/VO15ONS https://www.cargiant.co.uk/car/bmw/330d/FH16UHD https://www.cargiant.co.uk/car/bmw/330d/SP65FGM https://www.cargiant.co.uk/car/bmw/330d/FH16UHD Thanks. |

I certainly wouldn't rule it out if recommended, it's just they seem to be much sparser than the 330d! |
