2012 330d or 520D
 
Ok im down to the last 2

Ive got a 330D Luxury or a 520D M Sport on the company.

Im torn what to do.
The fuel and Tax on both cars is the same, yep the 330D does same figures ( ok we can argue that is may not but on the book it does )

What would you go with.

330d is fast and lots of torque

520d is big.
Views please

Do you need the space? If not Id say go with the 3 for more power/torque.

Do you want to look like a sales rep or middle management?
;)









If you're not bothered, I too would say the 3er.

Four pot vs six pot. Absolutely no contest.

Littleted 08 November 2012 02:41 PM

Zip you do have a point although I think the general BMW is a clit car every ?@:? got 1 even that 520.

im actually thinking even the 520D at present is stepping into insignia rep territory.
very commong

but both best in class for tax and cost

330D

I'll be honest and say I loved our 520d m sport, but it was the last shape - still not struck on the new one.

As has been said, a six pot over a four wins even if it is the devils fuel.
(Although my 4 pot derv is a cracking engine)

3 any day

Drive them both

My mate's got a 5 and its decently quick for a four pot, refined and a very nice place to be.

The F30 330d is also very rapid indeed.
Shame it has electric steering. A trend that makes me angry. Other than that though its great.

Four pot diesels are pretty horrible (our van has one in bi- turbo 180ps form). Sound dreadful, need thrashing. We had no choice in the van but for a car, I'd never go near one again.
