    I have a 3 series coupe. Sign up to bmwland.co.uk for advise, those guys will be able to help you decide and its a busy forum.

    Only downside to the 3 series in my opinion is fuel economy.

    Somehow I don't think the OP is going to get much of an unbiased opinion there.:rotfl:

    I suspect mentioning the BMW's poor fuel economy compared to an EVO is a bit pointless.

    Which Evo anyway? (Assume you meant the 335i or d as none of the others are comparable to the EVO)

    Evo Pro's
    Speed
    Handling
    Practicality (4 Door Saloon)
    Kudos
    Rare
    Reliability

    Cons
    Insurance
    Road Tax
    Fuel Economy (Low 20's at best)
    Servicing (Costly and More Often)
    Image (More likely to be stolen)

    BMW Pro's
    Handling
    Reliability (Not always the Case though)
    Looks

    Cons
    Too Common
    Image (Think BMW Drivers)
    Base Spec + Cost to Add Additional Spec
    Only 2 Door
    Small Boot (Seats don't fold - AFAIK)
