These X35D are great motors, I had one a few years back and they are a beast. Loved it had to sell as not doing the mileage etc to need it but miss it every day.

I owned a 430d and had it stage one mapped which helped the bhp to 313 but kicked the torque figures up massively, the thing was a monster being RWD only! These cars are a way to get into a luxury brand with big power at a sensible price. Everyone should try one....

I have a 2014 100k 435D M-Sport X-Drive Coupe with almost the same spec but yours has a few extras like Comfort Access, Surround Camera and Reversing Camera. I love the performance although will be doing some "Mods" to it like Intercooler upgrade etc and probably some coil overs, still thinking about maybe a M4 bodykit though. Only thing I don't like is the exhaust but getting my brother to make a custom exhaust for me to make it louder because it's to quiet. I am the 2nd owner and the previouss owner looked after it really well.

Great video as always Calvin 👍

Had my 435d coupe a couple of years...great car to drive had it mapped by EAG motors offord, now 360bhp 700nm torque, and still getting a average 35mpg in sports setting would be higher is in comfort. Great value for money think mine would easily do 20 - 70 mid 4secs. Oh they are pretty looking too, always get comments....white with black wheels on spacers, carbon mirrors, carbon boot spoiler upgraded rear defuser and kidney grills...looks the biz

Wish my 140i made a boing like that when I closed the boot bro.

my old stage 2 E46 330d (300hp, 625nm) had an encounter with one if these. Just about even from 60 onwards. I think there is a gearbox upgrade which increases the torque rating and transforms it from a ZF8HP70 (700nm max) to a ZF8HP90 (900nm max) for added peace of mind as a remap will push it over its max torque rating.

Has it been tweaked?

Just seen you modelling for naff co 54

Love a big diesel motor not sure If you remember my purple 530d from your show last year il be there again in a couple off weeks 👌

Recently got a 435d xdrive and wot a machine might get a stage 1 up to 400bhp

We had a x6 4d, much the same engine as the 435d, a 3 litre with 2 turbos, big heavy beast but I always remember beating a wee guy in a type r civic with drain pipe exhaust and all the boy racer add ons and finding it quite amusing. Ive just bought a merc e class coupe with the 3 litre 265 bhp diesel , had it remapped (about 300bhp) and love it too, like you say drive it sensibly and you're in the 30s for mpg but it will get a shift on when you give it some, I hated diesels when I was younger but I wouldn't buy another petrol, not until they price diesels off the road with higher road tax or £5 a litre fuel prices, neither of which would surprise me.

Should of done a run with the roof on Calv.

How are the window trims still going weird, my e46 did that. Same problem 12 years later? Come on BMW.... 😅
