Lack of real life views disturbing...
So - does no one find it a little strange that apart from the official launch reviews in Germany (and one dude at a motor dealer who clearly is destined for another profession!) that there are no real world tests of the 330e in the UK - either in video or article format?
Do we think someone is trying to hide something? It's all a bit odd to me - especially given the potential impact this vehicle will have on BMW's sales, the PHEV market in the UK and the fleet market? Can't get my head around why CarWow, Auto Express, TG etc don't have any road tests, short/long term or otherwise. I am suspicious! |

They all come out at once, simply there aren't any cars provided to the motoring press. When they do it will coincide with offer support. I posted the dodgy UK review as it was so rare...well that was the intention, instead most seemed to think it was me or I though it was a great reviewer....nope!

It's a slight update on their old review. Need to get them to run a long term test. Agree that they must be pretty heavy on the accelerator to get those MPG figures.

No worries, I don’t get mine till December so I’m looking for reviews with a frequency I wouldn’t want the missus to know about.

you got them and you have to feed them that's why as an example, 330e has more or less same bhp as 330i and much, much better fuel consumption :P |
