E all like that feeling when


we have


snapped up a bargain. That warm feeling of hoodwinking some poor simpleton into handing over something for far less than it is actually


worth. You will not get that


feeling driving out of a Volkswagen dealership in a Bora T D I130. I t kicks in the moment you look at your bank statement and realise how much you have


saved on fuel. Surely if you were to put


that calculator to work and ask a few more probing questions, that warm glow

savvy enough to have


worked out that you would need to drive hundreds of


thousands of miles to recoup the additional cost o f th e s e TDI 130 models.


Well, we can knock that little misapprehension firm­

b.h.p. predecessors. Likewise, the premium


which Volkswagen charges for the privilege of driving a


car with its badge on the bonnet d o e s not seem par­

at the Bora as something a b o v e the mainstream

the first thought was that we had been sent the old pic­


tures in error. The car, to put it mildly,


looks rather similar to the


model it replaced. The latest round of revi­


sions apply to the 3-Series saloon, which we examine


versions do not get a facchft, The coupe and cabriolet .


but that is all part of BMW s master plan to develop even more outlandish versions of


these variants. So untd then


it is very much as you were. The latest four-door car certainly will not have


passers-by wondering what this strange manifestation wearing a BMW propeller is.

that looks exactly the same as the old one and deeper front and rear valances which


do look significantly tidier. The rear light cluster is


s u b t ly different, although


the easiest way to differenti ate the two generations is the latest car’s side repealer


tucked into the swage line just behind the front wheel.

is that the latest 3 Series benefits from the sweeter

The seats are trimmed
