[dxb335d]

on a private test track of course,

was pretty even all the way really, several times we had to slow down and re-accelerate up to impressive speeds, and one point we lined up alongside, i was in manual sport and it when i booted it kicked down and lost me a few seconds he got a car length ahead but the gap remained unchanged upto some high speeds

thought they were limited to 155???

getting more impressed with the 335d all the time, she be a quick beast

Bet the EVO driver was well pissed off - not being able to shake off a 'tractor'

Am looking forward to similar malarchy soon (on a track of course - wink, nudge)

What kind of evo was it?

I have had at least a couple of cars egg me on in the few days i've had the car. Latest was a Skyline last night. I think the twin separate exhausts might send out thewrong message!!! I stayed with the skyline for a bit but then remembered break-in . In a way I wish it wasn't debadged as i'll missout on the surprise of people realising its diesel

Have you all got your 335D badges on, or are you badgeless?

I cant wait to blow people away in my 350bhp 335D touring!!!!, and then watch their face when they see my D badge

Badge on for me, too.

As there is no puff from exhausts on the 335D anymore, I wish there was a dashboard switch to iluminate the "D" for those following behind

Talking of smoking pipes, following a Merc CLS 320 Cdi today on an '07

How about going one further and putting a 320d badge on your 335d. Now that would really piss the boy racers off big time. - especially as they would think you were a wannabe with the double exhausts!!

My mate used to have a 325tds superchipped to 170bhp (which was great power for a diesel in those days) but put a 318tds badge on it. He had mighty fun with it because loads more people were up for a challenge when they thought he had the lesser powered car - then he'd literally leave them sitting confused in a pile of smoke when he put the foot down. Ahhhh.... the fun we had - lol

I'm waiting on getting a 320d, I'll just have to be happy with the mpg

[dxb335d]

yes the badge is on!!!!

not sure what eveo mate, but it couldnt have been a standard 260bhp one because i cant imagine that pulling as hard as it did to the speeds it did...



must have been at least an fq300 or fq340

My badge is off as per my post above. I prefer the look but had also thought about getting one of those electric signs you can get and type a message in for the rear window - "You've just been dieselled"

[dxb335d]

you have just been diselled BRILLIANT. love it.. :rocks:
