Go for the d, no regrets surely.

 

[muhaiminrahim]

Welcome..welcome..

Put your mind to it & it will manifest itself soon...:biggrin:

Cheers

 

[muhaiminrahim]

thank you for the warm welcome..

gregwho, yup i am putting all my effort to get this dream of mine!! (a beemer).. thank you for the encouragement :top:

my first ride was an Open Kadet 1979, then Ford Laser 1986 before buying my current ride a Viva 2007..

actually i wanted to purchase a Jap car before ending up buying Viva.. just because i dont want to settle for a car that i will regret buying.. so, i decided the cheapest car around until the timing is rite.. now it seems the rite time to move on and buy a beemer.. :wink::wink::wink:

All the best bro...the 320d is a great car...u get power n economy all in one package.

As you can see, it looks especially stunning in white...BMW calls it Alpine White. Mama mia! C'est une excellente voiture!

 

[gregcwho]

Think 320d has got no fight w 325i..think the diesel kakis will surely attest to that..

But I suppose you've gotta check out your environment as well..support in terms of fuel (availability of diesel VS petrol), technical backup (I suppose both being BMW same2 problem) as well as budget lah..

If you do come down to Klang Valley once in a while,do join up in one of our TT..am quite sure our members here can help you decide..

All the best!

Cheers

gregcwho, after a while thinking it over and over again, i guess it all comes to how deep my pocket can go:wink::wink:

lets see if i have the time when im around klang valley to join your TT.. a bit shy though as i dont have a beemer myself:embarassed:

I tell you white is the 'in' colour these days. White, as they say, is ....the new black. And very easy to maintain! My last car was black-terrible lah-had to respray whole car just after 2 years-all small scratches, whirls can see....Grey/silver ok for 5 series or 7 series.....more matured (read b o r i n g) generation of cars and car owners.....when you hit 50, get the 5 series, when you hit 75, the 7 series. My rough guideline. Ohh ohh I will be killed soon at the next TT/drive! The 320d in Alpine White.......simply spectacular. Trust me, I'm the 320d ADVOCATEUR!

P.S. AlBundy bro..I had to google up that word...found out its French. AlBundy frère, je suis sûr que vous appris le français à partir d'une ravissante petite amie française ex?
