It's an easy life this truck driving lark ๐Ÿ˜‚ All you have to do is drive, open the back doors and reverse onto a loading ramp ๐Ÿ˜‚
Just hope you haven't picked up from a Tesco DC, as the chances are there will be stuff all over the place

March this year, bring it on ๐Ÿ™‚

I guess you mean march next year, March this year has been and gone ๐Ÿ˜‰

We occasionally deliver to Tesco RDCs, but don't load from them ๐Ÿ˜ƒ


It was New Years Eve, I figured folk would know I meant this year. Bloomin' Pedant ๐Ÿ˜œ

Always a good sign when someone buys the same model of car twice, hope shes great for you mate
Had been looking for one for about 2 years, but I specifically wanted the exact spec I already had on my 320d, just with the bigger power plantโ€ฆand every one I saw was sold or reserved by the time I called the BMW dealership. I was lucky with this one as Iโ€™d called up about another (slightly lower spec) to be told it was soldโ€ฆbut another had literally just come in as a part-ex and I got first refusal (y)

So ended up with almost exactly the same spec (just missing the top nav option) but in a 335xD, and have doubled up on driven wheels, turbos and power - and it got almost identical fuel economy on the 250 return trip as the other did on the trip over - so a win-win situation ๐Ÿ˜

Stats are 309bhp with 465lbft (or 230kw and 603Nm for us intellectuals).

the #35Ds are phenomenal motors!

I really liked my e93 335d, changed that out a couple of year ago for a f92 435d and am enjoying that immensely also!

New car itch is hitting again though... :D

Agreed. I had the older E60 535D and the engine was really very special. I've never been a particularly big BMW fan but that engine totally swung me. I knew it would be a good drive and stay quite tight in the running gear for years, but I wasn't expecting just how good that engine would be.

It was the older one so I would only see around 40-45 MPG but it was remapped, putting out 350hp and 500Lbs of torque, it made the world move backwards when the loud pedal was pressed.

I was looking for another as soon as I was ready to sell but unfortunately pricing put me out of it.

Back in a BMW again as per previous pics, but this time it's leccy. The delivery is another level again but the range not so much :ROFLMAO:
