Need to downsize from a 3 Series - what should we get?
We need to replace our 2005 BMW 320d, which we both enjoy driving, with its rapid acceleration. Ideally, we would like a used car with a little more headroom. However, we're now retired and do low mileage, so a petrol model will prbably be best. Can you recommend anything?
