Hi Guys,
After selling the 228i, and much contemplation about what to get next, I came across this 2017 330d at BMW Bedfordview with 24000kms on the clock.

That was the only pic I had of it completely stock :fencelook:
The following week I added the gloss back front spoiler, double slated kidney grills, mirror caps, rear diffuser, and bootspoiler.
Also had the side sills wrapped in satin matt black with M performance sticker.
As much as I like the 442m wheels, it didn't look as aggressive or fit in with the rest of the bits I added so a week later I had the 813M reps recommended to me. Somehow pics don't do justice to the wheel. I plan on keeping them on for now while I keep an eye out for a nice set of suitable OEM wheels later on.

I wasn't a fan of the silver trimming around the window so had that wrapped in gloss black vinyl:

Also had the headlights and fogs covered in grey laminex.
Been very tempted to start with performance mods, but Motorplan still active until Oct 2022 so I'll just have to wait it out.
I've had the car for nearly 3 months now, and must say it took me a couple of weeks to adjust to shorter rev ranges. Also the weight at the front was also very noticeable to me, considering having owned only 4-cyl in the past. Overall, it's been a real joy to drive - economy, comfort and power balance that I've never experienced in any other vehicle I've driven.
