The time has finally come!

Buttons · 04-29-2013, 02:59 PM

After flirting with the enemy (Audi) for just under a year, I am returning to a BMW.
Picking up a 335d on Saturday and i can't wait

Had a 330d before the Audi and regretted parting with it almost immediately.
The Audi is nice but nothing more than that.
The BMW is, well, it's a BMW and that says it all

Very nice mate. I did the same as you with Audi and came to the same conclusion hence why have a 330d back on the drive!

MEGA · 04-30-2013, 04:14 AM

Congrats! 335d is a brilliant car if I do say so myself

Sir_Pigley · 04-30-2013, 04:23 AM

That looks great.

Ste133 · 04-30-2013, 04:28 AM

Welcome back to the club! Very nice motor.

What Audi did you have?

davyk31 · 04-30-2013, 04:38 AM

Not many E91 335d about, you did well to find one in a great colour too.

$pringy · 04-30-2013, 05:56 AM

Nice car, not surprised your back. Audi's get boring real quick...

AlwynMike · 04-30-2013, 06:09 AM

I lasted 15 minutes in an A5 sportback 3.0.

My 335d looked just like yours - maybe even from the same forecourt (Sytner??)
Mine now has some added black! (wheels, grilles, roof, spoiler, diffuser)

A5 3.0tdi with all the toys.
Dont get me wrong, it's a great car (especially when we had snow and when you wanna go round corners at speeds that you shouldn't!) but it ain't a BMW.
I think you're either one or the other, BMW or Audi, but didn't want to be a knocker without having trying both.......
I tried, it failed, I'm back!

Pick it up this weekend, all I gotta do now is remap it!

The fact that there aren't many of them made me want one even more!
Had a 330d before the Audi and I would happily have another but when this popped up on my radar........ well, like I said, pick it up this weekend!

Yeh, agree with that 100%.
I had the Quattro 3.0tdi and although you can throw it in to corners at ridulous speeds, it ain't as fun as having to stop the back over taking the front!

Very nice looking motor mate.
