There definitely (as expected) looks to be a significant economy improvement with the diesel. This part of the world, even second hand, there's usually some sort of premium for a 320d over a 318i ... I'll just have to look at breaking open the piggy bank! |
Maybe it is your right foot - How harder are you having to drive the 318i so it goes like your 320i? To attain those 318i combined figures I imagine you would have to drive it very sloooow.

My remap only altered the comp by 1mpg (more accurate) so I can totally trust my OBC.
