Plus ride is subjective. I prefer it hard anyway.

Lol. Perfect lady/suspension for me is one whos forgiving daily but very firm when needs must, with no comprimise! (Don't think OEM se or m sport do this)

But seriously OP, i'd take a ride in the m-sport and se and you might even be ok with it. As Dave has said it is subjective.

My 335 has m sport suspension and i am certainly not impressed. The aim is to change it soon.

By the way, AlanQs mentions the M sport seats and suspension.

These are ONLY also on the SEs for E92.

For E90 (Saloon) they are NOT standard. There is a much bigger gulf in what the M sport upgrade provides for the E90 than the E92.

Keep that in mind.

Theres a metallic grey 320d M Sport with 74k on the clock 3 previous owners with a few scratches and stone chips for £10,350. What do you think?

Ill be honest the grey colour puts me off, I think the blue is the best colour followed by the silver.

Its your car mate. It would better if you picked a colour.

Bloody hell. Would have thought you would be bored of copying that link in all threads that talk about potential purchases

I would go for the M Sport diesel as I prefer the slightly more aggresive look of the M Sport.

mob17 · 02-10-2013, 11:21 AM

OP, have you test driven both the M Sport and SE models? If not then i would strongly advise you to do so, and try driving on rough roads.

deeebo8452 · 02-10-2013, 05:50 PM

Ive decided to go for the m sport diesel. its got 74k on the clock and have managed to get it down to 10225.

But as I mentioned is it a ed model or not? Meaning non droopy tail pipes

DO NOT get a non ed car if you want economy. It'll be much better to drive than the petrol but not any more economical and as mentioned the older turbo is also a bit of a concern.

Not trying to piss on your purchase, but I did already mention this point in this thread.

No point posting advice otherwise!!!

Fingers crossed.
