So yesterday me and the wife went and picked up our/my new car a 320d Sport (shes not keen on driving it as its much bigger than her swift). Its not an MG and hasn't got the same character, but so far I'm well impressed with it totally different driving sensation.
Worked out that if I only do 5,000 miles a year its £100 a month cheaper to run thats taking into account insurance and tax which is only £30 a year!!Meant to be able to get 40+mpg of real driving which I think is very achievable as got 38 on the way to work this morning and I was shifting too. Its surprising quick but doesn't feel it. Looked down at the speedo on the way home thinking I was doing 40-45 and I was nearer 65!! Reckon I'm going to have to watch that carefully.
Not sure about the new front end at the moment got mixed feelings about it, but the interior is lovely....so many gadgets along with 3 different driving modes, Eco+, comfort, Sport and Sport +. Was quite surprised how much difference it made too. Thought it was just a selling feature but could definitely feel the change.
