330e Sport v 330e M Sport (suspension query)

[Funkydunc]

I am looking at swapping out of my current 320 ED to a new 330e as I have been offered some very competitive quotes.

The Sport comes out at £314pm and M Sport at £340pm

The differences between the 2 are Leather Seats, M Sport Suspension and LED Headlights. Other stuff to me is just cosmetic.

What really interests me is the M Suspension. My current 320ED handles fine, but I feel it could be a little firmer through the bends, but then on the other hand it gives a plush ride.

I have read some stuff that the M Suspension is harsh, is this true? 90% of the car use is my commute, and I am lucky that it is on nice twisty country roads, so that makes me think the M Sport suspension would be worth the extra?

Interested on thoughts of people who have driven both.

Have you managed to get any feedback on this else where?

I have the same query. I ordered mine with m-sport suspension but have read that the ride is firmer on the 330e to account for the added weight.

I found m-sport with 19s too clunky on a diesel version so opted for 18s with non run flats.

Still have the option to delete the m-sport suspension at the moment but can't seem to find anyone with an answer and not sure when I'll be able to get a test drive!?!

Anyone driven yet?

Hello,
Any verdict on the M Sports suspension?
I'm in the market for a used 330e and not sure what to go for, I drove a couple with the M sports suspension and it drives great, both cornering and over crap city asphalt, but I've seen it doesn't fair very well and motorway speeds which sadly I didn't manage to test...

Any feedback from 330e owners would be terrific, thank you!

I find it fine. Came from a 430d Luxury and whilst it’s a little firmer it’s still comfortable and a very smooth car on motorways and around town no problem.
