Superb
Recieved as a replacement for previous 3-series ED. What an improvement! it takes time to grow on you as with ECO modes it doesn't feel as quick (but it is!). This is now much more family friendly with so much more rear seat space. So much more up-to-date interior with good bluetooth integration (voice-activated). Feels solidly built too and still with great economy (ave ~58mpg). Screen and controls are much better. I have 3 caveats:
1) get upgraded stereo - std one is r****** - needs more power!
2) get active suspension - doesn't feel quite as soft as old one.
3) get sports seat - softer seat doesn't locate as well as old one.
Doesn't detract from it being a great car though!
