Thanks all, if I don't sell the car inc bits ill let you all know.

New car is a 330d m sport with several toys. Did think about the GTD but £100 more in CCT I thought I'd give the the 3 series a punt.

Nice, not so keen on the the F series front end but I'm sure it will make those longer journeys more comfortable with great performance as well.

Is it the 8 speed auto?

Yes mate, you can only get the 330 in 8AT which include the cheeky sport plus mode.

I'll still be lurking around on here cos I'll be in a VAG before long. Looking at moving house too so provided we have a double garage a little mk3 VR may be calling. Not ordered it yet so I'll keep you posted.

Forgot to say, I'm def interested in the gloss rear diffuser and GTi inserts.  Can you let me have a price when you're ready please Ginge.

You'll love the Bimmer, and the Estoril Blue looks stunning in the sunshine :cool:

Wish I had been able to get the 330d for my work hack as had one for 24hours and it was effortless driving and power with the 8 speed auto massively impressive, kicks DSG into a cocked hat as its clunky poor cousin.

Look forward to the pics.

Good luck with the sale Ginge, your car looks stunning and I doubt you will struggle to sell it.

I've been there done that, had an old 330d and loved it but then sold it after 4 months and bought a new R32  :evil:

The new 330d does look nice though and that blue colour is superb :cool:
