    Only problem i have with the saloon's are they look so big, which is why i opted for the compact, 330d could mabye interest me though lol.

    I would 100% go down the 320d route.

    My mums aging Rover 75 has the 2litre turb-deez from BMW and it is a monster of an engine compared to other deseasals i have driven!

    Don't be put off by size, generally a 3 series isnt going to be much bigger than say a Focus or Golf for normal use unless you live in Paris?

    Mg zr 2.0 td? I have searched the internet for some info and it's meant to be bombproof. Mabye a good call as you can buy an 03 reg for around 1,800 with FSH etc.
