The 135i, 335i/d and 535i/d all have a 3 litre twin turbocharged engine.

The petrol versions produce around 300bhp and the diesels a little less but more torque. Was voted best engine in its class for few years.

Er, yes, we know that. Not an M car though, is it?

Saw a really nice clean 530i sport E39 today.

Bad news was it was plastered in white "turbo m-power" stickers on the windows and had a "turbo" badge off a porsche on the back.

I'll never understand some people.

The M badge just isnt enough now so they are setting new trends with different badges.

The Merc boys have more options like the 'CLC'180 I saw recently was just a 52 plate C180,but it was more subtle than the beemer ones.
