I used to have a G20 330e that I absolutely loved, but the only thing that I didn’t like was the PHEV system and how it made me lose 100L of boot space and 20L of my petrol tank.
Unfortunately I had an accident last year in it and was wrote off.
Nevertheless the overall car was absolutely fantastic, and I was going to get another 3 Series without the PHEV system. But then I had to cancel it due to a parts shortage.
Opted for an Audi A5 (sorry for swearing on this sub) and it’s a really nice car but it feels so bland and boring compared to my BMW and I miss it dearly.
Though I’d love xDrive but unfortunately they no longer build this onto the regular 3 series’ in the UK. But they do on the M340. But I also massively prefer the styling on the M340 and I’ve been wanting one for ages.
My business has had a really good couple of months and I’m debating treating myself to a company car and would love to join the BMW club again. But I just question whether or not I need so much power, or if it’s worth being a daily driver.
The power makes me nervous, as it’s over 100bhp faster than my 330e and even that was a lot.
I’ve watched a lot of videos where people have said it’s a fantastic daily, and the MPG does look fairly decent for a car of its type and power. But I’m just questioning this?
I never owned a car with more than 200 bhp before my m340i and I had exactly no issues with it.
The only thing that I had to get used too and I’m still not 100% of a fan with for daily driving is the very stiff suspension. I know that’s what I signed up for but I had never truly experienced that and I’m not sure it makes for the best daily experience but I got used to it. The thing is you can’t have both sports suspension and super soft suspension for comfort.
