After thinking long and hard about the next car choice, summing up the need for a diesel over a petrol, I bit the bullet.
I traded in the Mondeo ST TDCI, which was great on fuel and handled well for a big car, and got myself
2001 BMW 330CI, with 49k on the clock.
After having a 330d Auto sport Saloon previously, I thought I knew what I was getting.
The 330i lump mated to a manual box is awesome, so much control, smooth power progression, and awesome noise.
Im going to get a full service done, with all fluids changed, and a general check over, as the back end seems twitchy at high speed, but after a weekend of hoonage and driving everywhere I love it!

I had that with my Boxster. Had it investigated and the suspension geometry was a little out at the rear. Had the four-wheel alignment done at an indie which cost approx. £200.It feels totally transformed now..
Oh, and I have had both manual and auto 330ci's and much prefered the manual version. Lovely cars!
