daily

New car, new blog. Having wholesomely enjoyed my E46 for the last 5 years (blog here), my next car of course had to be another 3 series. The E92 pushes all my buttons, most of all I just love the way it looks and I figured if it handles at least as well as the E46 then I'm onto a winner...

Recently returned to the UK from working abroad, and was in need of an economical daily. My main requirement was RWD, i did some research and decided i wanted a 330D as it suited my needs and has good scope to mod. But delays in money and a desperate need for a car, i picked up this little 320D...

Hey guys and girls, I've been without a car for a while now, and near the top of the large list of maybes is an F01 7 series. My worry is that I haven't owned a car of that size before and I wanted to ask owners what it's like living with a car like that on a daily basis. I live on the...
