New car time, I liked the Passat for about 20 minutes then thought WTF have I done. 2 year lease to see out and it's felt like 4.

This time around I've been more thorough in my search for a good all rounder.

Search leads to a pre-registered 325D M Sport, essentially it's brand new, but around £7,000 cheaper than list. Only downside is the manufacture date just missed out on LED rear lights. Hey ho.

The car does a lot more than I expected, nice stuff like option to inflate side bolsters for when you want some country lane fun, b/tooth prep I didn't think it had & auto lights & wipers which again for some reason I didn't think were standard.

Spec is pretty in depth but basically it's 6 cylinder spec as a base plus M Sport pack, burr walnut trim (yes, wood, I actually spec'd wood), full cream dakota leather, b/tooth prep & heated seats.

In flatable bolsters means comfort seats which are a bloody expensive option. Nice find.

They aren't comfort seats, it's just lumbar support I think.

Looks nice, shame it doesn't have HID's though (or NAV!) :(

It's the side bolsters, the "wings" that inflate. Lumbar is just the back bit isn't it?

Yeah, can't win em all! :)
 
By the looks of the photos they have extendable thigh supports as well so i reckon they are comfort seats. The bolsters are very different from lumbar support.
 
the inflateable side bolsters are on all msport seats in the e90 afaik? the courtesy 320D msport had it, as did the 335i msport i test drove.

Looks bloody gorgeous for a company car mate, envious!
 
I like, i would like a lot if the interior was a different colour, but i like it regardless :D

good choice on car colour :]
 
I've taken a liking to the Sport packaged saloons on these now the more I see them and I am getting tired of people scuffing my trim when entering the coupe so I think a 4 door next time is a must and one of these (though not a 325 :p).

Nice!
