I dont want a dog diesel thanks. I appreciate it is a torque monster and an ultimate dual carriage way rapist with its mid range grunt.

Have you been in a 335i or even outside it when its under full throttle. sounds immense and such a smooth & punchy engine.

Thought you'd only just got the BMW with "alot of thought gone into it" wheels and focus side repeaters?

I bought the 330ci in November 2011

The side repeaters are standard you weirdo.

The newer 330i's have the N54 (i think) engine which is more powerful then what is in our cars. 260bhp I believe?

I have said this before but my friends 335i with decent coilovers fitted is a VERY capable car. Just trying to talk him into a remap.

Late 2007 E90 330i had circa 270bhp, older 1s had shy of 260bhp. The old man has a 2005 E90 330i, and it aint slow, pulls like a train.

Not in the E90 which came with the N52. You are thinking of the M54.

You are have merged with your woman into an angry man

Get real oliver, the 1.8's 5 people up are dog slow and you know it.

Not really, it handles itself perfectly well with a full car and a boot full of camping gear. Its not a vxr, but it does the job. Its certainly not slow but it does everything needed with comfort.
