335d coupe

I have to say that my 335d coupe is fantastic love it loads. Big thanks to Ed for all the information that he has provided since it was his ex car. But also all the other memebers that have contributed to making me aware of any problems and check prior to buying.

The car has pulled a lot of attention on the street. The pick up on this is just happy overall the car is awsome!!!

Same sort of timeframe for me too and I feel exactly the same.

Indeed. What I like most about the car is it's sheer flexibility. It's a great sporty coupé albeit with a diesel engine but the performance/economy (not just MPG but also VED etc) is just right.

There there's the fact that it's not one of those fake 2+2 seaters where your rear passengers have to be 4ft. nothing, you can actually get adults in the back. Ok if you're particularly tall or chunky you might suffer but on the whole your "average" adult should be plenty comfy in the back.

To top it all off, the boot is a reasonable size and you get all your gubbins in without too much drama. Love mine to bits and will continue to do so for quite a long time to come I think.

A lot of what I said applies to ALL E92, regardless of engine size. It's just a very competent all-rounder

Just a cracking package, such fantastic performance.

I'll be on my 2nd 335D soon, however this time I will be getting a weekend toy as well, to fully satisfy my petrol head needs! The 335d is a great allround package, and I give it 9/10, but its that extra 10th that really does it for me.

Glad you are enjoying yours, and the re-map is so needed on this car, it really shows the potential of it. It goes from a very, very fast diesel, to a car that can keep up with the best of them - and believe me I have tested this to the full!

Good to hear you're enjoying your car. 335d is a savage car with a remap, I've had first hand experience.
