I'm mainly looking into something a bit bigger, with at least the same power, if not more. M Sport only pretty much, I can live with that. I didn't realise the 335D did manuals?

Weird thing about the 330D and 335D, is that they are both about 100 cheaper to insure than my 123D.. I will keep on looking, but can't decide between the 2. Suggestions?

Looks like the right sort of spec for me, bar full leathers, but I can live without.

Thank you for the link. It looks like a 2009 onwards would be ideal for less problems and the newer engine. Besides those listed, are there any niggles that drive people up the wall? And what is servicing costs like on the 3.0 diesels?

Cheers for the reply. Sorry, what year(s) is the E90, and what does LCI mean?

Hey guys. My name's Sean and I currently own a 2008 123D. I'm looking to trade up to something a bit bigger in size and power, so have been looking at the 330D & 335D, budget of maybe 15k. My main concern is, I have absolutely no idea about those cars, reliability, power gains, common faults, servicing costs etc. Any help and tips for me please? Kind regards.
