There has to be a catch with this car right? On paper it's mighty impressive and makes many other cars look a bit silly! 70mpg, 109g CO2 and a car that still does 0-60 in 8s..........

All the reviews say it's pretty decent to drive as well and all the economy hasn't compromised its driveability......I think Mercedes, Lexus and Audi have a bit of headscratching to do.........:laugh:

I've personally always thought BMW diesels are miles ahead of the competition.

Marsdendean My dad had one for a curtsy car (BMW 320D Auto) and he did not like it. The main problem was you put your foot down, nothing would happen, then all of a sudden drop down and go for it.

He said because of the lag he did not like it, but it did preform very well for a oil burner!

Well......its an auto! :p (sorry.......thats a Gord-ism)

My mate has a Seat Leon FR (new shape) mapped to 200hp and thats nice, but still abit noisy compared to a BMW diesel.

Yeah you're absolutely right, but then the difference was smaller. This ED version makes them all (including their own normal 320d) look really stupid.

It's a shame BMW doesn't make a big V8 or V10 diesel as I'm sure that would also be very impressive, and something I might consider myself!
