Is '08 D3 a 23d

Cafe.Racer · 03-17-2009, 03:37 AM

Followed a D3 down the M1 yesterday - would an '08 plate be a twin turbo 23d or a single turbo 20d?

Steve A · 03-17-2009, 03:42 AM

08 plate is the twin turbo unit

Excuse my ignorance, but what's an LCI?

Life Cycle Impulse. The BMW name for a facelift.

Thanks for clearing that one up for me Alan. Don't the Germans have some strange ways of saying they've done a facelift!

Right, for it to be an O8 registered car it could only be either a D3 monoturbo saloon as D3 biturbo saloon only just released. Sytner do have a 58 plate.
If its a coupe it can only be a biturbo as wasnt released as a monoturbo in the E92.

Monoturbo= 197 bhp, 410 Nm
Biturbo= 214 bhp, 450 Nm

I thiught it would be more than 177 of the stock 320d etc. WHat have they done to increase 20bhp.
