400bhp and a V8 growl.

I am definitely going petrol next time.


I bought an old 2.8i Z3 recently as a bit of a project and found out is has an OBC last week, seems that since its last reset, which must have been 6 tanks full of fuel, but could be over 1000s of miles, it is showing 35.7mpg.

I am done with diesel, I always buy them, but I have to feather them to get decent economy. Also having the straight six petrol again has made me re-find my love of cars.

that's good to hear
