Hi guys, name is Brad. (Hence the nic name)

Currently have a Mazda 3 MPS, and i am part of the mazda club.

Been recently looking at getting a 320d. Mainly fuel reasons as my heavy foot combined with a petrol turbo is never a cheap combination. Car is also modded so im always tempted to give it the beans for not reason.
End of the month my fuel bill comes and i'm :cry:

So will be browsing your forums and looking around for a nice 320d. Just plans for now.

Thank you :)

Welcome, Nice pics - your car looks clean.

If you are looking at a 320d for efficiency, look no further. Have a look at my average consumption in my sig...

Yeah that 330d is a beast, saw the promotec one for sale on the forums here and wow... 202kw and 600+nm.... my gawsh will eat my mps XD.

Its in my price range just has too many km for my liking. Turbo replacements are not cheap :(

A nice 320d under 100k km, maybe 2008+ model.
330d with that criteria is still a bit expensive T.T

Welcome to the best forum on the web. U'll definitely enjoy your stay here. A 320d is a great car, excellent fuel economy and I haven't had a days trouble with it. Some days I wish it were a 330d, maybe my mind will change about that in the new year when it gets a remap and downpipe.

320d is always a winner, and if power is a problem, software will fix it for now :rollsmile:

330d however... :inlove::praise:

My advice would also be to get the 330d. Don't let the mileage put you off. There are much higher milers still running stock turbo with Mods. They are very tough and I would only recommend a rebuild at around 200k km. Provided the car has been frequently serviced and cared for.

I would rather buy the already modded one and spend R6k on the rebuild down the line. It will be much cheaper in the end. I know someone that does brilliant work on the turbo rebuilds.

Happy hunting :thumbs:
