Our Fleet Test Drive: BMW 330d Touring - 10th Report

Date: 07 January 2014   |   Author:

Mileage 10,017
P11D price £37,355
Our average consumption 44.5mpg
Official combined consumption 65.7mpg
Forecast CPM 77.0p

The 330d is fitted with BMW's excellent eight-speed auto gearbox.

Almost impossible to fluster, its smooth and well-timed shifts mean you forget it's there most of the time, and as with most modern autos it's very economical.

There's no manual option on the 330d to compare it with, but on smaller-engined models the auto is more efficient than the manual.

And despite occasionally immersing myself in the car's addictive performance, I still feel no need to use the paddles mounted behind the steering wheel, which is another endorsement for the auto's prowess.


Verdict


  • Pretty much the perfect all-rounder
  • P11D and option prices
