If not E46... ?

[LordGrover]

I have an old E46 330Ci - too many miles and an automatic, but apart from that it's pretty much what I want from a daily drive. It's time to replace it. If I could find another, later E46 330Ci manual with leather and < 50k I'd get it tomorrow but can't find one.

So what are the alternatives?

Comfy, sporty(-ish), good looking, reliable.

NB - can't be red, the colour of everything I dislike; Bristol City, Arsenal, Manchester United, Liverpool, Ferrari, KFC, Labour, etc.

emfree would be a natural progression if you don't mind the age (youngest ones are on an 06 plate now).

Price range would be a good help in choosing a replacement. Obvious thoughts are an E90 petrol.

[LordGrover]

Good point.

Max £15k - not worried about age, more the mileage. Not keen on the E92 TBH.

I bought that for just shy of £15k in July last year. Had 9 months BMW warranty, FBMSH, recent service, 4 new premium tyres.

£15k should buy quite a bit today

Oh and 56,000 miles.

KFC is gorgeous! wicked zinger tower box meal, with gravy as the side.
wings are excellent.
