This is my first BMW and my only comparison to 30d is a 24hour test drive of 150 miles back in Feb. I got it 8th Sept and have circa 1500 miles on it so far. I am extremely pleased with it. The performance is very strong particularly mid range. The one stand out for me is the way it 'coasts' which is seamless and kicks in very quickly and you need to look at the dash to see it has happened. Restarting engine again is seamless and the auto stop start is so quick you never get the feeling you want to de activate it. The coasting makes gentle driving very very smooth. Fuel consumption seems good but little to compare to. In summary I absolutely love it, smile each time I drive it and am still looking for excuses to drive ... First BMW experience so far very good.
