The wheels spinned a bit and the DTC light came on until about 80 km/h. I never experienced this on the 320d. The highway drive was fun with the cars being taken around corners at high speeds. The 135i was able to hold its line very well. There was a Golf GTi MkV who got excited seeing our group of cars on the highway and tried to zigzag around us to the front <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite11" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Roll Eyes    :rolleyes:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":rolleyes:" />I was quite surprised at what the 320d can do at the track! The exercises looked impossible to do and many of us just played very safe first time round. For the subsequent rounds,  we just put faith in the car's ability and I think all of us in our group passed! The car is so stable that it will stop in straight line during emergency brake without us holding the steering!Overall a good introduction to the real ability of a BMW. It shows the real dynamic performance of the car and the safety aspects that comes with it to many drivers.</blockquote>
