I find the autovogues styling is too OTT. Do they not always use base spec cars too?

Same, would prefer a nice MSport with CSL rims.

Autovogue bumpers look like some pikey fibreglass copies

The main thing on the e90 is the dpf going which according to the internet will go at roughly 100k and is around 1k just for the part, for around £600 you can have it removed and the car remapped to suit which is obviously the better option. If you buy one already mapped id be checking to see if the dpf has also been removed. My 55 plate 330d is almost at 130k but hasn't shown any signs of sluggishness to suggest to dpf is failing/blocked so i guess its down to how its driven.

Yeah DPF's seem to be a common thing on most modern diesels. Soon chop it out and have it mapped!
