Sporty diesel 5-10k
What sporty diesels are out there between 5 & 10k? Must be 5 dr as for the missus. Been thinking about a bmw 123d
|
Yeah Id choose the BMW with the automatic gearbox, Great cars to drive and can get pretty good mpg!!
|
We've got a volvo v5 d5 180bhp 270 torques and does 45mpg. Once moving it's pretty quick, 5 cylinder engine so it has a little character about it. Looks quite smart too. :)

If you need a good 2nd car, I cant think of anything better then a diesel BMW!!:luvlove: |
Cheers for the suggestions guys... Like the idea of a 325d m sport but a little over budget for a decent one :(....
|
535d
high mileage 335d audi 3.0tdi I even had a lovely old mondeo st tdci which was superb to drive, nippy too |
BMW every time. Very tuneable also. The 123D will put out 260bhp and 340 lbs ft with a remap. Sporty enough for you?
|
We have a Seat leon Cupra FR with factory fitted Cupra R kit on, looks good and goes really well for a diesel has a cheeky Revo dealer option on it as well :)
205BHP and 315LB-FT |
SAAB 93 ttid. Good money and lot of car, great MPG too.
|
|
MK 5 Golf GT Tdi 140?
As it happens I have one for sale (company car arrived this week), and its right in the middle of your budget at £7.5k. Pulls like a train, easily does over 50mpg. |
I like the Volvo.
Yep. |
Pacenote; remind us what happened to the main bearing in that Legacy?
|
10k will get you a very nice low mileage 320d m sport. 177-184 bhp and mappable upto 220bhp for less than £500.
|
I HAD a Volvo S40 R-design 2.0 ltr... Pokey little number, and in white everyone thinks you're a police car, and you get let out more at junctions,

If you want sporty I wouldn't bother with the Volvo, I had the first V50 sport in the Uk with almost every option, while it was a nice place to be and a lovely car, it was very easy to find it's limits, quite sloppy on the edge and bit vague too, it's basically a Ford focus in a fancy dress.
But don't let me put you off because they are very nice mine was gun metal grey with fancy wheels, leather, winter pack, sport pack and other stuff I can't remember, it was 2005 only thing I didn't have was sat nav as our cars all ran smart nav, definitely have the look back factor and used to p!ss off a lot of managers too, engineer with a better car,:D very classy but really not what I would call sporty. |
