Hi 

 

I am considering purchasing a BMW 335d xdrive touring.  Has anyone got any experince of towing with one?  My caravan has a MTPLM of 1500kg.

 

Thanks

I can't speak for that particular model but I have an X4 3 litre diesel which has the same engine in a slightly lower level of tune and it's basically also a 3-series BMW. I've towed my 1800kg caravan down to Italy twice with it since I bought the car last year and I'm off down to Italy again with it later today and I can't fault it.

Just make sure that the trailer electrics are fully wired. Mine got the factory-fitted swivel towbar and it wasn't (I don't think any BMW's are fully wired as standard).

Have the 520d M tourer xdrive, tows brilliantly.

If you're getting one with a factory fitted towbar, make sure they fit the wiring for the fridge. Just cost me £800 to get that sorted. Experience of this and the last BMW with factory fitted towbar is that no independent towbar fitter will touch it.
