Rear-drive, six cylinders, manual 'box - a Shed for the ages, no?
ByWe were going to have a £1,400 Mercedes E280 S124 estate on here today but Shed spoiled that by snapping it up himself as a spares donor for his own S124.
Anyway, it’s no great loss because Shed has partially redeemed himself with this low-mile, low-owner, BMW 330i SE. As most of us know, the last two numbers in a 3 Series’s name tell us the number of litres under the bonnet. Well, they used to anyway. Shed hasn’t understood what model numbers mean since long before E63s were given 4.0-litre engines.
All the usual BMW boxes for safe handling and creamy refinement were ticked in the E90 330i. The engine was honey-smooth and suitably raspy right up to 7,000rpm, 400rpm past the 254hp power peak. The ratios of the new six-speed manual box were quite long but the shifting action was excellent, helping you to achieve a nippy 0-62mph time of 6.1 seconds.
