Shipley, do they do big mileages ok? Contemplating something like that as my next car and keeping it 6-8 years (from new or nearly new), which would put 150-200k on it.

That is the comparison though, albeit the Jap crap done't feel the need to do big engines (they have a point).
Shame the new Legacy's so damned big n' overweight.

It's the only jap that appeals and it'll be a very cheap upgrade if I leave it till 2010 but we'll see.
You know what it's like Mikey
Just got a call from the beemer dealers, I'm booked in for a 335d test drive in a couple of weeks and hopefully a 335i for comparison.

The 270CDI is relatively rare in the C Class but has far more grunt than the 220 I once drove.
