BMW F30 330d saloon - should I be considering anything else?
Discussion
Sorry, yet another 'help tell me what to buy' thread!
I currently have an Audi A5 3.0 tdi Quattro Sport, but need something more practical with 4 doors as it's getting difficult getting kids in the back of the car with this being a 2 door. I'm currently looking at an ex demonstrator F30 330d saloon, for approx £33k, as this seems to tick the boxes of practicality, performance (0-62 in 5.6 seconds), and fuel consumption.
Before I pull the trigger, is there anything else I should be considering for the money?
I quite like the thought of a Q5 3.0tdi but they are too much money, an S4 would also be great but doing the mileage I do would cost a fortune in fuel.
If I do press the BMW button, I'll try and show other road users that BMWs do actually have indicators, and will ensure they are used as and when required!!!

I'm separated, so unfortunately have my daughters alternate weekends - so thought BMW would be ok space wise, as most of the time it's only me in the car.
A5 Sportsback - good shout, especially as I've been really pleased with the one I've currently got. However, having had this for 4 years, a change would be nice.
A6 Avant Le Mans - have got a friend with an A6 Avant, and he says it's quite a big car, and would look at something smaller next time. I'm also aware I'd start looking at a 3.0tdi but end up hankering after an RS6 and use 'man maths' to make it stack - but this would cripple me with fuel.
Thanks for the replies though.

A4 Avant with the 3.0 diesel or the 3.2 petrol?Gassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
