320i E90 Auto questions

[Boss187]

So power aside I just have some questions hopefully someone can answer:

Is BMW accurate in saying that the avg consumption is 8.1/100km?
Do the Auto models have any known problems (08 model) ?
Is the Nav professional awesome? :excited:

 

[BMW M]

Fuel consumption is accurate. :thumbsup:
Its to slow to break anything, so very reliable... :thumbsup:
SatNav is great until you have to buy the updates (R2800 for the latest edition)

Go and drive a '08 320d then decide...

I would also like some more info on this.

the 320i 2007 model automatic or later (+- R160k) budget

or 323i

Anything is better than the 320i. I see you're in CT, so the 323i would make nice power down there.

^ Because of the power?

i have had a 2005 320i.

if u drive like an old lady, you get 8l to 100kms, drive it like you stole it and it can go up past 12l to 100km. trust me, i have a diesel now and push it hard, i have never seen it go over 9l to 100km.

the e90 engines are reliable, but the 320i is underpowered. go for a 325i if you must have petrol, otherwise get a diesel and you will never look back.

323i much better than 320i plus the benefit of the 6 cylinder howl over 5500rpm!!
