Hi guys
I've had my eyes opened to the R36 wagon and wanted to join up to absorb some info to help with an eventual purchase.
I love quick wagons, have owned a Nissan Stagea RS4S with bolt-on mods in the past and loved having a bit of 'go' underfoot without sacrificing any practicality. Most recently had a BMW X5 which had plenty of practicality, but not a lot of go, so I spent quite a few bucks on ECU tune, Bilstein suspension, Eibach springs and swaybars and other handling mods before giving up and realising that a 2+ tonne car is never going to be an exciting drive, and that the only thing going fast was my bank balance.
I need something that can fit a dog in the back, and potentially a screaming baby and associated paraphernalia.
Had been looking at a BMW 335i Touring but they're few and far between, probably even more of a maintenance pig than the X5, and quite tight in the rear
The R36 seems to be a lot of bang for buck and a bit more usable space, with the bonus of the sweet DSG and AWD.
I'll be looking to make a move on something in the second half of this year, so for now, just here to learn.
Cheers!
