Auto box good or problematic?

Looking to spend up to 9k area,consider a 330d for power but economy may rule it out as a daily

What age? The 3.0d doesn't really use much more fuel than the 2.0.

If it's an E9x, then i would opt for a 325D or a 330D and avoid the 4 cylinder 320D. They are noisy engines and the 330D is almost as good MPG wise.
I chose a 325D and have just gone down the remap route to give me the same output as a 330D

I've had a number of both.

I'm my experience, the 3.0d uses noticeably more fuel.

Its the engine of choice though
