D3 reviewed in this weeks Autocar. It received 4/5 and the only real critisism was the hard ride. Overall an excellant car for the money.

One of our register members Steve Davies ( Here)

Was in the party doing the article - with his Roadster S taking part...

I have undertaken another article, this time with Total BMW where we compared my Alpina Roadster S with the Z4M Coupe and Cayman S.

It will be published in next months magazine.

Anyone got access to any PDF/web B3S articles? I've got the Evo B3S Touring one, but that's it... I'd be much obliged.

Nice article on a modded B3 3.3 Coupe in September's BMW Car.

B6 Cabriolet in this week's Autocar (20 Sept) on page 37:

"This car makes sense. Maybe, just maybe, more sense than the M6 Cabriolet we'll be driving in next week's mag."

"All the oomph of an M6, but with fewer compromises."

Just a small "First Drive" article but a very positive write-up
