    Love this car. Very refined and will potter around town in silence. Not a bad long distance car. I have driven to Berlin and back from Derby (1590 miles) in 3 days. No one mentions the reduced size fuel tank 40 litres which on longer distance driving can be a pain. Handling is better than 330d, turn-in is tighter as less weight over the front wheels. Reliability has been an issue. 3 complete failures of the charging system. Car off the road for a week every time. Would have another one though it really is that good.
