Күн бұрын

I've bought a new car, and what might be the perfect daily with 190kw and 560nm!
The BMW F30 330d is truly one of the best all rounders that money can buy.
While finding a well maintained low miler can be challenging, the looks, driving dynamics, power and consumption make it worth the effort!
Here's my thoughts on this specific F30 330d and an overview of it's specs.
Oh, and a quick 0-100kmh pull timed on Dragy.

Got one in April. I managed to find a 13 plate F31 with full main dealer service history and one owner from new with 85k on the clock, and EVERYTHING works on it. So far getting 45mpg on my daily commute on country roads. Had its MOT in June and it flew through. Enough power to safely pass slower moving traffic . The gearbox is a joy. I seem to be in cruise all the time.

Had a 2014 520 D with the msport package a few months ago, very sad I sold it but yeah the BMWs of this era and above have just been super reliable and low maintenance. The 2012-2014 3,4 and 5 series specifically are just so good value for money and being BMWs they are very likely to have had caring owners so very great value on the used car market.

Agreed man don’t sell it, especially if you can’t buy the G20 330d M sport in Africa anymore. The 330i or even ‘340i is just not on the same level. I recently bought my g20 330d M sport in dravit grey colour. Still have to get original 793i black 19 inch wheels for it for my Pilot sport 4S summer tires. And put winter tires on my current wheels 791 M. Still some small upgrades. But all in all I love the car. It’s the best sport limo for every thing. City cruising, A,B faster roads and especially for the highways. Nothing compares not even the M3 G80. I wanted rear drive only but with adaptive suspension and M sport differential. Wooow the way you can slide the back and with such control it’s amazing. Just like the M3 and it’s 620 NM, easily get it up to 700Nm with a slight remap nothing more. But the torque is always low down, always useable range and sipping fuel. Unlike M3! This is why people who really understand the BMW 3 series always buy the 3-litre turbo diesel. It is simply BMW’s best product ever. Sadly if it 11:04 goes away, nothing like it will ever exist again. 😢

@@The_Carbon_Connection indeed n55 does sound very exotic, one of my favorite things about it. It’s great daily. I also have bilstein coilovers, which really transform this platform. It’s little soft stock even m sport suspension. I got alpine white just like your 330d.

I have a 335d and it's the reason why I don't crave an m3.

@@The_Carbon_Connection sure is. I did a stage 1 remap too and eliminates the desire to have an m3! Nearly 400bhp and not the expensive maintenance costs that usually come with owning an M car. Great channel btw!

That's excellent power. I'm thinking of doing a remap on the 330d as well. Hoping it also improves consumption. Thank you sir, I appreciate the time taken to watch my videos.

@@The_Carbon_Connection a remap is a no brainer to me. Stage 1 especially as its just an ecu tune and no additional mods required. You won't regret it. Unleash the extra horses in that engine!

Was thinking of a stage 2 , downpipe, egr delete and swirl flaps off. But I agree that a stage 1 tune is a lot easier and will be more then enough power as my daily driver.

Yeah you're correct. That's why I'm on the fence about keeping it.

@@The_Carbon_Connection it realy is in great shape and the mileage is very low. I understand why you want to keep it. I have the same car just the touring version F31 and i love it as daily driver. Also great MPG for the power. You only need to remember that it takes aprox 20 km driving before things realy start to wake up temperature wise. It wil hold up but it can become costly in the long run. Thats my experience with diesel engines, specialy inlet ,Oil , EGR , DPF will suffer. Mine is Mineral White also with the black accents. Difficult choice anyway Enjoy the car Mate
