so i see you sold the beemer, still having fun in mine,you still a forum visitor on e46zone.my car is better on fuel than the zt, although i probably used to drive the zt so i felt the push back in the seat, with the beamer its different, a bit more linear,so to get the push back in seat i would have to take it to higher speeds as the power band is much longer,3rd gear goes and goes and goes and for 4th,talking 110mph

I took one of these out for a spin, really good performance for a 4x4 and the V6 sounds great. Now only need to convince the missus she would like to drive a 75 instead of her Saab and I can have one......

Hi mate.

Yes the 330 has moved on. Sad to see it go in some ways, but we had a 4x4 for a couple of weeks and it was soooo much easier to get all the stuff in over the saloon. That couples with the fact that my missus said she liked driving a big car for the first time ever, meant a change was on the cards. lol

Still go on the zone occasionally but I guess that will dwindle a little now I am out of ownership.

Glad your still enjoying yours, they are a fun motor to drive and very quick for a diesel.

All it took for me was for is to be lent a 4x4 for 2 weeks that she HAD to drive. She would never of touched one if not put in that situation. lol.

So get someone to lend her one

Well here she is.

Picked her up Saturday morning and all was good.

Spent today giving it some TLC. T cut the whole car followed by a quick black couloir magic wax and then a coat of Auto Glym SRP to finish.

Looks a whole lot better than when I collected it,

Oh, don't worry. I have a 1.8T to compensate for that.
