Paid a visit to my favourite local haunt today. I'm normally there on 2 wheels though





Just in case you weren't sure where it is

as they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder
my last 8 motors have been estate cars, in order 1.9A4Qu. 2.5A4Qu, RS4, X5, RS4, RRS, F31, F31
the 1st f31 pre LCI didn't handle well at all, a bit spooky when pushing on too floaty, changed springs to AC Schnitzer got a bit better
got my 2nd F31 couple of months ago, noticeable difference in this facelift model suspension wise but changed the springs anyway for H and R, looks much better stance wise and in my opinion handles a hell of a lot better
needless to say I like estate cars, everyone to their own

Yeah, everybody knows deep down that estates are the coolest model - don't fight it.

If only they made an M3 touring - that would be another car i couldn't afford!

Mmmm

I cant help but think that Volvo would look very cool with a black grille, lowered and a nice wide set of wheels on it!

And a decent engine!

So, what do we have? - apart from the suspension, the wheels, the engine and the styling the Volvo is the better car?

I've been a fan of the estate since the B7 RS4. Doesnt suit every car but I definitely think the 3 series, A4's and C Class cars all look better in the touring, They have a much nicer arse on them imo, and these days it's all about the arse isnt it...

Great car he's getting too!

I do love tourers but on reflection they're the only daily drivers I've ever modified significantly, this one and my E46 330d tourer, so it does make me question this idea that they're not compromised handling wise compared to a saloon or coupe.
Looks awesome with the colour coded M Performance side skirts

2 weeks into ownership of this March '18 registered 320d Shadow Edition.

It's an ex BMW UK management car and replaces an E91 Touring that was my daily steer for the last decade. It's just turned 6k on the clock, looking forward to getting a couple of days to detail it and prep it for winter.
