Hi guys

been on here for the last month just browsing and educating myself on Bm's, especially the E90 and i have to say, dam good forum and hell of a nice community going here :coolShake:

i was hoping i could get some help.

for the last month i have been looking for a clean e90 lci 320D motorsport and i have found in good conditions and spec'd to the T (even has i drive which i haven't seen on a 320D yet!)

but now i want decide if i should take it, then map it and thats that....
or wait a bit more, save up and get a 330D.

is there any members who could perhaps give me a ride in 320D (130kw) thats been mapped, for me to feel if i will be happy with the power? :tiptoe:
i am afraid i buy it then once the novelty wears off i regret not waiting and purchasing a 330D.

i am situated in the kensington/Befordview area, so if anybody is close by i am m willing to meet you, and maybe even have a go against my current car just to compare performance.

^ This.

Dont get me wrong, the 320d is no slouch, BUT the 330d is just so much better.

Save up, get the 330d

I had to make the same decision.....decided on the 330D....You cannot compare the two....330 is a beast and best car I have owned...

Rather save up and get the 330...You will never be dissapointed...

You seem to be after power. Get the 330d. If you want something extremely fuel efficient get the 320d.

I own an E90 320d, and love the car. But, if I could afford it, I would go for the 330d, no question.
