Chris Harris tweeted this a day or two ago (I've used the same title here) so I thought I'd share it here as I hadn't seen it before (but sorry if this is a re-post).

CH will have tweeted it because it is part of the business he is involved in: YouTube Drive channel

The topic is interesting but the presenter has as much charisma as a wet fish.

Nice.

PS O/T See you have a 335i and E46 M3 in stock - how does the driving between the 2 compare? I'm torn between purchasing either at the moment, I want the 'pushed into the seat' feeling of the M3 below 100mph but the looks of the 335i....not sure if the 335i gives the same 'pushed into the seat feeling' as the M3 - what have you found?

(Didn't enjoy the test drive in the E9x M3).

The 335i is sold now and being collected tonight. They have different characters - I blasted the M3 around the lanes on Saturday and for that it's definitely more satisfying that the 335i. It seems there isn't one car that will push all the buttons for you, so you'd have to decide on which way you'd prefer to compromise I guess. You're welcome to come and have a test drive in the M3 anytime.

Agreed re one car doing everything - getting to that conclusion myself too!

Thanks for the offer of a test drive - unfortunately I'm down south (London most the time), but appreciate the gesture.
