There is no excuse for tailgating and those doing it dangerously deserve to be prosecuted. However, we must also look at the reasons why they do it. There is an unfortunate culture where drivers will not move over unless they are tailgated. Many are happy to travel for miles in the middle and outside lanes holding up traf­ fic.

into a smaller car. Most of the time it never gets be­


yond idle musing. The car enthusi­ asts that work for BMW go several stages further. They make the fan­ tasy a reality and then have the good grace to sell it to the likes of us; people whose practical skills do not go far beyond changing an air filter. BMW’s 335d coupe is a per­ fect case in point. Unlike the petrol 335i, this model


features two turbo-chargers of sig­ nificantly different size. The small­ er of the two blowers does not take a lot of energy to spool up and comes on stream from idle through to 1,500 r.p.m., whereupon the en­ gine’s exhaust gases can overcome the inertia of the bigger of the two units. From around 1,000 r.p.m.these


two units operate together, but from 2,500 r.p.m. up to the 5,000 r.p.m. redline the big turbo is operating on its own. Peak power arrives at 4,400


r.p.m., where this engine is making that crushing 268 b.h.p. Even more impressive is the 580Nm torque fig­ ure - exactly the same as a Porsche 996 Turbo. So muscular is the 335d that


BMW’s standard manual gearbox would be turned to swarf by its torque. Instead, this car is fitted with a slick six-speed ZF automatic gearbox.


What is particularly Impressive


about the 335d is the way BMW has overcome the downsides of driv­ ing a turbo-diesel car. The rather unsatisfying “bog and surge” power delivery of many turbo-diesels has been completely nullified by the clever sequencing of the turbo­ chargers, ensuring a clean, even spread of power from idle right up to redline. An electronically-limited top


speed of 155 m.p.h. is as quick as you will probably ever need. You do

not buy a car like this on the strength of fuel economy, but the 335d nevertheless returns pre­ dictably excellent figures. A com­ bined showing of 37.7 m.p.g. will make planting the throttle a re­ freshingly guilt-free experience. This is a genuinely astonishing ve­


hicle. It is as quick to 60 m.p.h. as a Nissan 350Z coupe (5.9 seconds), but is more economical than a 1.8- * litre Ford Mondeo and features as much boot space as a Lexus GS. All of this would make the 335d

worth buying alone even if the car was an average handler, but it is a BMW and you know what you are going to be getting. Then there is the styling. Con­


temporary BMW design has been a strangely hit and miss affair, but the bullseye has been firmly hit in this instance. Asking whether this is the most


complete sports coupe available seems almost fatuous. Of course it is. Nothing even comes close. In terms of ability, it’s peerless.
