Please help,

I have just got rid of my MY05 WRX ppp (company car) as it is not comfortable enough for my increasing annual mileage (25K).

I need something that will be comfy, more economical, yet thrill as well. I was thinking along the lines of a E90 330d. Anyone else got any suggestions?

 

I would take the cash option and buy an Audi A8 4.2. Use the savings to fund the petrol.

Sorry, that suggestion is about as far removed as possible from what you asked for. Still, it's what I'd do

 

You could do worse than buy my A4, which just happens to be comfortable, fast yet economical .....

Shameless plug for Ad:

Yep - couldn't agree more. Get it bought !

 

that limited edition astra 888 vxr turbo diesel with 200 bhp and 330 torque ,massive 4 pot brakes ,tweaked suspension etc and still very frugal on the juice.

 

I think if you are jumping on the TDI-torque band wagon, you'll kick yourself if you don't buy the BM...

 

another vote for the BM, fantastic car

 

Thanks guys,

I think the BM 330d has to be the way forward - test driving one tomorrow. Will report back.

Will it be considerably slower than my scooby (wrx ppp)?

Cheers

 

He wants a 'comfortable car'.

 

Real world or seat of the pants??

I confess to never have driven one, although I should imagine with all the low down torque it will feel a lot faster than your Scoob.

 

Wont feel anyway near as fast as the scooby i'm afraid. Whats the timescale? Maybe you could hang on for the romoured 335d? I know they'll be doing a 335cd

 

That's bizarre - my Ibiza Cupra feels as quick as my old newage PPP WRX...

 

How about the Mazda 6 mps?

 

how about a S3?
