The 2 cars are quite different. The 340i sounds great and is really quick. Its a joy to drive and even returned some respectable fuel consumption when driven sensibly. The 330d is arguably the best all rounder. Is super reliable and great on fuel. I think the 330d will hold better resale value as well.

Go and check after you've made a cup of tea or something but don't unlock/open the door or the power will kick in again. Appreciate 0.

BMW also introduced a separate hatchback model under the 3 Series nameplate called the 3 Series Gran Turismo (F34). The F30 is the first generation of 3 Series to be powered by a range of turbocharged engines exclusively and electric power steering (replacing the hydraulic power steering systems used previously).5znn.
