If there’s one thing I’m known for, it’s my love of unreliable shitboxes. I embrace this enthusiasm, but in reality, living with these cars can be tricky. That’s why we had to buy a daily driver for my daily driver after the former’s starter motor packed up. The replacement - a BMW 316i Compact - has been great, but it’s being transformed as we speak into a fan-built car with a purple and green chameleon wrap. And because I’m now on the wrong side of 35, I’m unsure I’ll be able to pull off such a strong look…
And so, I aimed squarely for the one car that covers all bases: the BMW M340d Touring.
Expensive? You bet! But for a car that many - including me - often refer to as ‘the best new car currently on sale’, I don’t think that’s unreasonable given the quality, performance and cop car sleeper points on offer.
SIMMER DOWN BOY!
As I read through this, you would think this dude was doing twenty years to life and got out on good behavior, LOL!
He's so fired up, he could do a 10k run in his JC Penny briefs!
But I do like his enthusiasm!
But really? Tell him Spies why although this is certainly a nice ride, there are so many better choices for daily drivers today.
And maybe, just maybe, he's thinking this because he's getting OLD!
