Having now got used to my 323i daily driver, I can see just how nice these cars are to drive. Mine obviously isn't in M3 league, but does have the M suspension and MW 18" wheels. Just handles so nice and smoothly

I'd keep the M3.

Did I mention my M3 is fantastic?


Best allrounder for the money IMHO!

Just notched up 60K in mine in the last 2 years

Suspensions starting to feel a bit worn

& I need new brakes again

I'd keep it as you'll only be butt raped if you trade it in!

This is the thing with the big deisel BMWs.

They've got plenty of grunt however they are rubbish on fuel economy - so they kind of defeat the object of having a deisel!

It seems like the car market is pretty flat, although some prices haven't dropped as much as others. I've been looking into selling the Tuscan and the Renault to get something different.

Seems like the Tuscan value hasn't changed, although the Renault has dropped

It's refreshing to get an owners findings rather then an "experts opinion".
