Hello everyone

well bit the bullet yesterday and traded my GTI in for a BMW 320d i just couldn't justify or afford to use petrol anymore,and the difference in mileage was proved after travelling 128 miles back home from the garage..

Thanks to everyone.. :happy2:

Iv prob got 6months of lovely driving driving in the BM before you realise why you shouldnt buy 1...

Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

Wife and I had BMWs until I bought the E30 and got snowed in a few times - last time there was less than 4 inches....   :scared: 

Don't let me put you off though, TBH I loved my 320d coupe (snow issues aside).  Just prepare yourself for the "You need four new tyres sir, we can do a full set of Potenza runflats for £1000..."!   :confused:

Nice car though and fuel economy is astonishing.  I drove mine in a 'spirited' fashion all the time and never got less than 46mpg off a tank!  My wife used to get early 50's from it!  :happy2:

Golfs are sh*t in the snow too. Mine is only decent on winters.
