    Considering a 228i Convertible - pleas help me

    My dealer has offered me a sweet deal on a 228i Convertible. I have a 120d convertible and my consideration is whether to go for a petrol engine or a diesel one. I really like the diesel engine Im driving today, I find the engine sound somewhat uncultured however charming, I really love the torque the diesel engine offers.

    So, what about the 28i-engine, a 2-litre twin-charged 245 hp. What do you guys think, those of you who have driven one more than just occasionally?

    I have a 228i xdrive coupe--love the car and the engine sound. I can't hear any turbo noise at all. The engine sounds terrific in Comfort mode but really terrific in Sport!

    also the HP and torque come on quickly--it's great to drive.

    I think the 228i would be a big step up from a 120d, hard to imagine in your shoes that I wouldn't make the jump. The power delivery in the 28i engine is phenomenal for what it is... you definitely won't be missing the diesel imo
