Advantages: Small and light. Disadvantages: None so far.
An excellent little DSLR that embodies some older proven Nikon technology like the 10.2 megapixel CCD from the D60/D80 combined with a new 11 point focus system and a shutter mechanism tested to 100,000 cycles.
The body is small, perhaps too small for those with shovel sized hands but it is well made and feels very solid. With a camera this size there is no excuse to leave it at home.
The kit lens produces excellent results and is a good starting point at least.
Battery life is good and SDHC cards are a cheap and plentiful recording medium. As a first step into DSLR photography this is your camera whilst for those more experienced photographers looking for something more discreet and portable this is it.
There are no fancy whistle and bells it is just a good straightforward camera....what more do you need? ...

Advantages: Preformance, Economy, choice of trim, extras Disadvantages: reliability - Expensive turbo failure, Rear Seat Space, Boot Space
This is my first BMW, and I am sorry to say my last. The 320d has a reputation for turbo failure, which I believe applies only to pre July 2003 models. This failure can happen at any time regardless of service history and so cannot be predicted or circumvented and is a widely publicised failure amongst 320d owners on the internet!. The cost of repairing this vary between £2000 - £3000 and is not something which I would expect from a name like BMW.
Other drawbacks include driver comfort, which is virtually non existant, after 15 mins in the drivers seat you rapidly experience another feature of the 320D - namely BMW "Numb Bum", which I must admit was not publicised in the brochure. The driving position is also somewhat strange.
Both rear seat and boot space are limited and certainly not inline with the size of vehicle, and all BMW ...

Advantages: Stylish, and efficent Disadvantages: better engine coming soon
I have now owned my 320D SE 05 plate BMW for just over 2 years and I must say i am very very happy, I do apporx 35,000 miles per year and the drive, comfort, fuel efficency and build quality are second to none, the style is very attractive and differs from the old 3 series dramatically. I get approx 48 mile per gallon which for this type of car is very impressive. I know BMW are now working on the revamped diesel engine which gives even more fuel efficency and even better miles per gallon, there is also an advantage with the new engine on CO2 levels for company drivers as this is set to be around 131 which based on the current model would save a typical 22% tax payer a good amount of money. ...
