Little upgrade
So i thought it was about time to let my blue F30 go, even after a few years it still ticks most of the boxes for me, it hasn’t missed a beat but with doing more miles for work now and sitting in traffic loads I wanted to get one that was more comfortable to drive, so I thought what I need is an auto, it would be nicer to live with.
So I saw this, it’s an Alpine White 320d M Sport Auto, I know it’ll not compare to you guys with the 330s and 335s but it’s great as a daily driver and I’ll likely get it mapped, it has the Pro Nav widescreen, extended screen in the dials, usual M Performance kit on the outside and some rather fetching gold Quantum44 wheels My old one 318d so it will be nice to have a bit more power and after seeing them sit side by side the white is definitely a nicer colour, every one I see on the road is blue so that really put me off mine too. Only have a couple of dealer pics for now as I don’t have it yet, I’ll be going up in a couple of weeks to lift it when I get the chance. Have my depo lights to put into it, I’ll be getting them taken out of my old one on Monday, they will transform the look of it. I pick it up on Tuesday so I’ll get some better pics when I have my depos in and plate on. Some of you will remember my old car The New one |

Car looks great!
Surprised you went for a 320d over the 318d, they've both got similar engines and respond similarly to remaps. I thought you may have gone for an F10 520d if you were looking for more comfort. Still a fantastic looking car, will look even better once you change over to your depo headlights! |

I'll be the first to admit that I don't like black or even dark wheels on cars, for me they seem to lose all the detail unless you're up close and they somehow give the car a grubby look.
HOWEVER... I have to say the combination of the white car with black accents and those bronze wheels is making me reconsider and the combo looks rather smart. Nice choice!

Congrats on the new motor, looks stunning.
Despite what others may say, the 320d is pretty much all the car you ever need. A great all rounder, and in auto form it covers all the bases. My wife has one, whilst I'd prefer a 6 cylinder car, as a daily car with low running costs there isn't much that can beat the overall package that the 320d delivers. |

congrats on the new car. I do like those quantum44 wheels, had a look at some myself but I always thought the sizes would be too aggressive for an f30. They suit it really well

Thinks for the kind comments guys, the wheels are proving to be very popular with everyone not just on here but other forums as well so I think I’ve made the right choice and certainly the 320d is more than sufficient for the mile munching I’ll be doing

Easy enough I’d say, if I found a set at a good price I’d consider them
