My friend got the diesel so i got the petrol so we could compare.lol

Hi Ricky
Only picked it up yesterday so bit early to tell, however, we like the general quality of the car, std gadgets and are very impressed with the low down performance from the 184hp motor. I don't think we will ever get up to BMW's stated mpg figures, only showing 23mpg round town, but still probably 10mpg more than our old ML320.
The ride's a tad choppy but then we knew it would be with the 19" wheels and sports suspension. We like the Steel Grey colour too
