I love my 330i with the roof down and sport mode using the paddle shifters it just sounds amazing.

When you start winding up the power it turns some heads I can tell you

I'm getting average of 29mpg as well couldn't be happier with my car.

Based on 2008 m sport models otr price

325i - £31080
330i - £34550
335i - £35970


Thats why its almost £3500 extra to have bought the 330 instead of the 325 but not much more again for the 335 im guessing people thought they may aswell spend the extra on top again and get the 335 or just settled for the 325.

But a flipside to that is a high % would have got their new car on finance so a difference of 3k over 3 years would have been maybe like £20-30 a month more if they were handing it back after 3 yeats

Yeah so an extra 30-40 month for a 335i was a no brainer in that case. The 330i was never priced to sell well. 335i came with xenons and M sport suspension as stock too on all models. There was just no case for a RRP 330i.

Unfortunately for me, That makes a lot of sense!

Might take a 325 out for a spin. See whats up with them. Alternatively, bite the bullet and go 335i or dare I say, Diesel
