  • Summary

    4 out of 5 4.0

    What does this car say about you?

    I'm not a badge snob, I just want a pure drivers car.

    What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

    My family love the speed and my friends love the way it looks.

    Would you buy this car again and why?

    I would have, until I experienced BMW and now I want an M3!

    What are you likely to buy next?

    An e46 M3 with a manual 'box, if I'd never bought the e46 320d (and realised how good it and BMW are) I would have probably replaced the Subaru with another awd car, like a Golf R32. But, after experiencing BMW, I want an M3 e46!

  • Driving it

    5 out of 5 5.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Fun, really fun, but no where near as comfy as my daily, a 2002 320d.

    What's it like to park?

    Easy, but not as easy as my 320d because it doesn't have parking sensors.
