Anyone driven both in the F30 3 series?
I'm looking at changing my Merc 250D Estate for a 3 series Touring.
Like most people my mileage has been reduced massively due to Covid and working from home. Previously it was around 20K per year with a lot of motorway miles so diesel made sense. Now its a fraction of that but even when / if things get back to normal I'll probably be working from home for 3 days a week on average. Mileage will probably be around 12,000 a year I would guess.
I'm thinking of petrol as I'll be keeping the car for 3-4 years and diesels will be well and truly out of favour by then but I think I'll miss the torque you get from a diesel.
Yes I will go and drive them both but Lockdown in Wales means that's not possible for a while.
Am I going to find the 320i really sluggish? I'm not expecting an M3 and its a family car / load lugger but I don't want it to be frustrating to drive.
Thanks
