BMW 330d Touring (2013) long-term test review

Rated 4 out of 54

the CAR road test team, 03 June 2013 08:00

Month 2 running a BMW 330d: what's the 330d like as a driver's car? Rear-wheel drive, 413lb ft of torque, and a winter boot at each corner. Bliss. After 18 months spent in four-wheel-drive long-termers, I’m rediscovering my inner hooligan. In a diesel estate car. Any doubts I may have had about picking the 330d when I could have been ...

Month 11 running a BMW M5: we say farwell to out longterm M5 After 11 months and 16,000 miles – 11,000 of them in CAR’s hands – our M5 has finally departed.

In fact, I didn’t even race – I just managed to scrape through the qualifying session before it all went wrong. Shame, because I ...

Rated 4 out of 54

the CAR road test team, 13 January 2011 09:49

Long-term test - 13 January 2011 Recap: last month a torque convertor bolt came loose in our 5GT’s gearbox, was ejected at high speed and cracked the sump. Result: our BMW leaked oil across the CAR HQ car park, because (credit the 5GT’s refinement) our colleague behind the wheel didn’t notice anything untoward as he parked up. Meaning the first ...
