On Monday I treated myself to an early birthday present and a big brother for my z3 bought myself a 15 plate 435d msport xdrive in Melbourne red with matching interior a couple of photos of the beast hope you all like.View attachment 55098View attachment 55099

Fantastic, a little bit (a lot) jealous

Put a 420i badge on the back and bring it Santa pod...
Although a 4 series looks fast in anybflavour, nice shape, not seen a red before.
Nice choice, enjoy!

Got home from work early yesterday took the car down to my mate Gary's for him to have a look we went for a spin not much traffic about nice long stretch duel carriage way put into sport +mode and put the pedal to the metal OMG unbelievable going to have to go steady in this with the new speeding laws could soon be a few grand out of pocket

Great car Tony looks superb
Danger is ,as ive found out my 330d is quicker more comfy handles better and way better on fuel than the Zed so i find myself using it wheras as would have taken the Zed i now use the 330.
Except for euro trips of course.
Billz would never allow that

Welcome to the 300plus BHP club. The fun is in acceleration.

As an everyday driver I have the best of both worlds a sedate coupe in eco and a beast in sports mode and 4 wheel drive as well still nice to jump in the z3 though on nice sunny days top down wind in the hair don't laugh

These modern cars do recalibrate your sense speed and distance.
I've been a mapped 335d and that troubled the rear wheels a lot, can imagine this new xDrive is like the starship enterprise, just takes off from idle.

Now just remember that when you in the zed that it needs a lot more road and revs to do an overtake and it's only 2wd!
