They don't fit directly I believe. Think you would need to change the wheels as well so could be a little costly! Sounds like aftermarket jobs needed if the standards don't work for you. I doubt the wheels would be a problem as 330d's do run smaller wheels. The problem is that the caliper would be ...

I booked my for the "executive valet" when it was in.... i refused to pay when i collected as it was terrible. Wheels barely washed on the surface - no attempt to get into the spokes - and windows cleaned with an oily rag i think - you could see where tha had just polished in a circle in the centre ...

I think we do tend to look back at what we could not afford as young lads,...............,if i could get my hands on a descent one,i would have the escort version. I had a couple of RS2000s as a boy (when I was 18 and 19) and look back with fond memories. I had a mint 1600 Sport when I was 30.... i...

It is my old car.

Number 131.

I had it from new.

PM me

Why is it B35?
Why not just B3S?

Is it a typo?

Worked at Rastatt for two years and I know Andreas Wurz very well.
Shame that autocar don't know a "55" AMG is actually a 5.4 litre... why let acuracy spoil a good story.

I took my car back for this when it was about 12 months old... I was told they couldn't hear anything... now I know what it was!

I think I will buy another one day.

Looking forward with interest to the new 1.6 Turbocharged B1S

Well the D3 has gone and I am back to the three pointed star.
It was a very good car, nice balance and always got a few looks.

Will still keep an eye in here now and again.

Happy New Year to all.

We used to use Zurich for our E46...they don't cover the D3BT, sadly, so had to move....

Surely vblanche has a D3BT??

.... no.. i was wrong.... wonder why they do the D3 but not the BT....???

I think the D3 showed the way for Alpina... bulk sales come from cars people can buy and use. Would love to see a 1er or 3er 1.6 turbo... GT-RS style and packing 280-300bhp...

Of course the B3S/B5S should continue as the upmarket autobahn slayer of M-cars

Based on FIA regs for nearly all championships for next year and beyond, surely a 1.6 turbo would be the best move.

I guess it makes a change from the predicable blue / grey / silver for the sheep.
