Should have posted in here first.....
Hi Everyone
Sorry, should have posted here sooner......
This is my first ever new car and first ever BMW.......I love the car, though ownership hasn't been all plain sailing yet.
It was great looking through all the brochures and spec'ing it how I wanted it to be, though I wish manufacturers like BMW, Mercedes, Audi would get it in their heads that if I'm spending £36K on a car, it should have at least have leather, SatNav & bluetooth phone prep as standard.....
Anyway in the end this is the spec I went for.....was just going to have a 330D but the finance quotes I got made the 335D cheaper over two years than the 330D.....so it was a bit of a no brainer! Got a good deal in the end.
It was tough waiting for delivery and then it came earlier that expected but put it off another month so I could get the new 08 reg......
The details are as follows
335D SE Auto Coupe
Space Grey (love this colour)
Black Dakota Leather
Anthracite headlining (yes, it is dark inside....)
Professional navigation system
Front heated seats (pricey but the girlfriend wanted it!)
Auto dim and folding mirrors (good option)
Adaptive headlights (well worth £245 would recommend to everybody)
Bluetooth, telematics & voice control
DAB digital radio
HiFi loudspeaker system (glad I opted for this)
USB audio interface (fantastic)
Storage compartment pack (useful)
Debadged & velour floor mats
I've now fitted mudflaps all round to help protect the paintwork a bit and they look fine.
I average about 36mpg on a 40 mile a day round trip which is mainly country lanes and some A roads. On the motorway it does around 40 or so depending how restrained I am, but have seen it get upto about 43-45mpg. Round town the it suffers because of the Auto 'box but I don't see the point in a manual with all that torque.....
Hope you like
Sean
