E46 320 (2.2i) Touring
I bought this last year as the Golf was struggling to cut it on trips with my 2 year old and all the necessary baby stuff. It was also killing me lifting him in and out of the back of the car!
Its a 2003 M-sport so has all the nice trim and that. Leather interior. 18" staggered MV2s. Nice firm ride and truly sounds the nuts when I give it the beans (without the family on board of course).
Time for a moan or two....... The standard sound system is awful. I'm throwing money at it trying to sort this out!
If you think genuine VW parts are expensive then BMW have a surprise in store for you! It is also so so so so boring, drinks petrol, burns oil and makes me so so so glad I kept the Golf! :)

A friend of mine swapped his A3 1.8T for a 2009 3 series touring, he also says it's really boring.
I was tempted by a 3 series touring too, but was put off by all second hand ones being either high miles or high price. So I got a Skoda :laugh:

I went for the high price / modest miles option. To be fair it feels a very SOLID car, just a bit numb most of the time. I did get the itch and started looking at au7otrader again recently, funnily enough I was eyeing up a newer shape VRS estate :grin:
I'm using the golf sort of 50/50 with the bimmer. Its good to mix it up a bit and hop back into the golf, which never ceases to bring a smile back to my face :wink:
