Default Alpina D3?

Neighbour has one + saw Tiff driving one last night on 5th gear ... looks a cracking diesel if you like that sort of thing, certainly vs the 320d. Anyone got / driven one? Let me know what you think of it

Cheers, TX.

A well spec'd 320d Msport would be cheaper, avaliable in Autobox & for a few hundred £££'s could be mapped by e.g. Evolve & produce better power figures.

Which in Chippenham, it's not yet ;-)

Any performance-ish car (apart from Jap rally reps) + snow = silly.

Well seeing as you made the comment and own an Audi, why should I "resist?"
