 what to say on a BMW

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Driver and front passenger is perfect . The auto controls and the manual tilt for the front seat is really good . 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 the engine is powerful , and the in  sports mode  its quite fast . I used to own a Yamaha RD 350 , and the pick up of 320 d is the same or even better .

I have obtained upto 20kmpl on straight stretches minimising breaking , and avoiding quick acceleration - ofcourse not crossing 80kmph  . However it gives an average of 14 - 15kmpl driving at high speeds in the highways . In city driving it gives 9.5 kmpl . I have done more than 20000 km and the car is showing its second service due . BMW claimed that the service interval is 15000 kms , but thats hardly the case . The first service was at 11500 km

Ride Quality & Handling

 Ride quality is not good  as the tires are Run Flat and hence quite bumpy . The Bridgestone Turenza 205 / 55 R16 which comes as OE , is almost gone after 20000 kms  . Guess I will have to change the tyres at 25000 and this time I am going for tube less as I am told that ride quality improves signifcantly . Planning to put 225/50 R 16

Final Words

 A great sports car , but sadly we dont have the roads for making this machine sweat !

Areas of improvement  

 Like I said earler , rear seats aare clumsy .

 

Great Pick upLess space in the rear
