RangeRoverSport or 135i?

[BeirBrennerE30]

I have a problem... I test drove a 135i last weekend and i cant get it out of my head. The car is truly awesome and it feels almost like if BMW was just like "ok lets take an e30 and put a modern body on it". However I cant really justify it as another "toy" car as I already have run out of garage spaces in 2 places. So it would have to be my daily.

I curently have a 07 Range Rover Sport as my daily. It a really nice and comfy truck. The perfect daily car. Practical in the snow, room to put stuff in, can tow other cars with it, can take out clients to lunch in, girls love it. BUT its not fun like the 135 is. I could probably sell the Range and get the 135 and have some cash to spare.

I know this is a BMW forum so answers are going to be a lil biases but what would you do?

Your car is already awesome, I would stick with the Rover, no sense in having two really fun cars especially with the limited parking and such. The SUV is really nice to drive daily, no shifting in traffic and you have a more commanding view in it.

You'll regret not getting the 135i. Clients will like it, women will leap at you, and you'll have enough torque for anything you could want to do.

You know you want to get rid of that silly British poser-tank and get a 135i You know you do! ;)

Keep the RR, it is a far nicer car to have, you already have a fast small BMW.

135I all the way, I am seriously thinking of ordering one next year around this time.

335xi?

135 all day.

i remember reading a car mag where the RRS didnt even finish the test drive

Its really not practical at all to have the 135i if you already have a bad ass s52 e30. Keep the RR.

lol its practical to keep the RR??? interesting

It would be better for him to have the SUV instead of two small cars. It would be nicer for the Northern winters too.

For the two choices he gave, yes its more practical to have the RR.
Especially for where he lives.

Keep the RR.

Or, get the 135 and a beater 4x4 truck for towing/hauling/snow duties.

But, I don't know how much room you have to park cars.

Though question.

Just don't push the E30 on the side mind you!

It seems like there is a better compromise. You are going from small to large, is there anything in the middle that would make you happy? 335?, 335ix?, 550?
