Hi to all, I'm new to the forum. I subscribed because I will need to learn more about my new car.

I have bought an F30 335i M sport. I have only been with this vehicle for 5 days and had the pleasure of driving it over the weekend. All I can say is that I don't think I will be going back to any brand after this.

Currently in Efficient Dynamic mode I am getting 9.6L/100kms. Which is a big shock as I was prepared for a huge petrol bill. The reason for this this is that there is an invertor in the vehicle that stores energy from braking and coasting. This energy is then used by the engine and in turn uses less fuel, as well as the car cuts to 4 cylinders in this mode as opposed to 6 cylinders.

I was lucky enough to find one with the full M Sport treatment, which includes M Sport suspension with electronic LSD, Blue 18 inch M Sport brake callipers, 19 inch M sport wheels, M sport seats, M sport steering wheel, M Sport front facia dials, M sport 8 speed gearbox and shift paddles. And full M Sport and M aerodynamic kit body kit.

Other extras include Professional Navigation, sunroof, Professional sound, Rear PDC with reversing camera, electric seats with memory function.
Then the BMW connect package: includes internet connectivity, phone charger, on board hard drive, USB and Bluetooth connectivity.
I also have the BMW lights package: Includes DTRLs in headlights with Bi-xenon plus with high beam assist and full LED rear lighting as well as full LED interior mood lighting....

Now the Ride quality, in comfort mode, its very soft and pleasant, even gliding over bumps on the road. But once you press Sport; the throttle sharpens and the engine gives you full power and what a gem of an engine from low down right through to the red line power all the way no let up, Also once in sport as well, the suspension drops and the car becomes stiffer more dynamic and more communicative. And the Exhaust tone is a fantastic typical BMW 6cylinder sound...

Another thing is practicality, I'm a big guy and another full size person can sit behind me. Its very spacious for a family of 4 or 5, and the boot is big.

I only have praise for this vehicle. I feel very pleased and satisfied with this vehicle.

All I can say now is; I now know what Sheer Driving Pleasure feels like...













I LOVE IT...
