What's the BMW 318d GT like?

I made a mistake - the car I wanted an opinion on was a BMW 318d GT Luxury. What extras do you think worthwhile?

Hi Patrick,

In terms of an opinion on the 3 Series GT, I can do no better than direct you to our first drive of the car carried out by our very own Kyle Fortune. You can find it here.

As for the 318d specifically, well it might feel a touch underpowered in a car that size, so you may want to consider upgrading to a 320d. As for extras, my previous comments about leather and hi-fi still stand and for the GT you might want to consider adding the optional panoramic roof.

Hope that all helps
