BMW 320d Sport - Wicked Man



So Flying down the M3 every day, I needed to look at a range of vehicles to get me to work on time, but not only this I wanted a vehicle that was fun to drive not too flashy, cheap on fuel and comforable, whilst employing many gadgets etc.

So I had a budget of about 15k and I had the old BMW that had failed its MOT as the springs and the exhaust was hanging off, (Another Quick Fit) Nightmare.

So I had a look through some websites and thought for a while about how many miles I would be doing etc.. a larger jump in salary meant that I could afford to look at the next price range on.

So going down the M3 every day cites a pecking order as I see it, and you get all kinds of cars, but its what that says about you as a person, for example a twunt driving a lotus or a MX5 to work you just know that’s got to be uncomfy, like wise a 4X4 range rover is just a pig that is shite for the M3 fuel & all.

The clio sport I have driven to work but with the rising fuel prices and, the weather I decided that this was not an option, as earlier in the year I had stuck a clio in a field in wiltshire (172 sport), a result of which I lost shit loads of cash on the insurance.

Because my wife likes the Clio Sport so much I decided to give her the car, as I think that she deserves it putting up with me.. also she likes the fact that it is fast enough to make a statement if needed …

So for some reason I started looking at deisels and in particular the Audi A6 and the BMW 5 series. After much thought I backed out of this idea because they are not good to sell at a later date.. Finally I settled on a BMW 320d sport and I have to say that I am impressed, it looks mean and also is 150BHP on a turbo diesel about 45 to the gallon, nice and so far I have not had any problems, this thing you just chuck diesel in and off you go, I guess at some point it will cost for maintanence.

Nevertheless, it has cruise control trip computer etc, and is fully loaded with M3 sports trim, this car is reliable and looks great. Good thing also is that I lied to the dealer and told them that I had already been offered more for my old BMW, to which they gave me an extra grand, honestly it pays to be cheeky, the fucking thing was shot and I went off with an extra grand in my pocket “giggling like a cunt horse”.

This car is so reliable that I do not need to think about it much, when I got it I wrangled two back tyres out of the dealer, you don’t ask you don’t get.

Well I have had this car over three months now and there have not been any issues apart from when I filled up with about £15 quids worth of Super Unleaded at waitrose in Salisbury to which I had to get the lot pumped out by a garage costing me £160:00 nice, still for my cash I got to see this little Chav borking on the fuel and it pissing out of his nose. he had just swallowed trying to see how much was in the tank.
