Evening. Just swapped my 15 month old Focus ST 3 for an extremely low mileage 08 330i M Sport convertible. Wanted something more useable and mature. 1st impressions, smooth and quick in a totally different way to the Ford. No shout or bluster. It just gets on with it. Very comfortable too and the steering is fantastic. I'm in that have I done the right thing thought. Think I'll be happier once it stops raining.

    Thank LadsI

    I am warming to the 330i. Seemed a bit odd swapping a 63 plate for an 08 but like I said before, I needed something a bit more interesting and more of a hobby car and the BM fits that perfectly. The dealer I bought it from fitted some truly shocking cheap tyres that don't have any grip at all to get it through its MOT so I've booked it in to have some proper Bridgestone's fitted next Saturday. Still can't work out how to get my iPod to play and the sat NAV is a tad complicated but I'll get there. Just looking forward to using it now.
