Old Meets New

Well maybe not so old meets new, both F30's one face lift, one first generation.

The decals on these cars really set them off, along with 20" classics. I wonder if the dynamics will ever resurface in future models or maybe even a new style.

One item I can feedback is that if anyone is looking at a toss-up between choosing an F30 pre and post facelift model, there is not much difference so don’t get put off by choosing an earlier model.

As you can see on the image with both versions there is very little to distinguish between the two. Having driven both my feedback on the differences would be:

1 The cup holder area is far superior in the facelift version (so no big deal)
2 The suspension seems different but maybe that is just me (so no big deal)

That’s is about it. Either way grab a diesel before they ban them!
