An interesting "encounter" today.
A 58 plate 3 series, badged as a 320d, looking completely standard.
It could have been anything, however, it only had a single exhaust pipe, oval in shape.
Smoke each time it was gunned (DPF delete perhaps?).
3 people aboard - I was alone.
The only thing that made it look a bit different was a set of larger alloys.
A very very nice car in blue.
Now, here's the thing - it was quick, and I mean quick, each time he gunned it through the city streets.
I ended up behind it at a set of lights, and as they changed, he had the legs on me, despite my best efforts and him being 3 up.
Looking standard, I checked 320d outputs and he's nearly 100bhp down on me.
As I turned off he flashed his hazards, so clearly he's a bit of a petrol (diesel) head.
Any 3 series owner ideas?
ps - the "shouldn't be speeding through the city streets (I wasn't) will be ignored.
