Presumably a 335d MSport is the same chassis-wise as a 320d MSport?

They sit quite low anyway - my wife's one on the same wheels only sits about an inch higher!

Is it 2/4wd? The X-drives sit an inch higher, something to do with ground clearance for the 4WD system?

Yeah that’s a nice ride height, next you see an x drive one the arch gap will be one of those things you can never un-see!


When I saw the car I was like oh FFS the ride is going to be absolutely awful and the springs would be coming straight off but honestly it’s magic carpet compared to the 911 😂

Yeah, hers is on the 19s and even still on runflats and I think it's a very comfortable ride. I have zero desire for anything softer even on very long journeys.

They're all the daily you need really. Great spec too. Good choice.

It’s either £5k, or you remortgaged your home to pay for it. That’s how it works now.

(my Cayenne was £5k, before anyone asks)

Looks great in red 8-) as mentioned, not totally sold on the black wheels either. Ride height looks perfect, but that splitter is on borrowed time :lol:
