Having driven a 135 when they were released, I have to say they're a very rapid vehicle (absolutely ballistic with a map). Only thing is i'm sure they're only available in the coupe shape (Noddy Car) rather than the more practical hatch (albeit with a ridiculously sized boot). I believe there are issues with the fueling system on them though, so what about a 130i instead? Straight forward 3ltr 265bhp engine, with the added practicality of a hatch.
Chassis wise, I had an M-Sport specced 120d and never had an issue with it. No worse than any other 'Sport' suspension model now available from all manufacturers (Ever tried an Audi S Line? Now that is a harsh ride!). I always thought it was a very capable car, yes a bit crashy over rough stuff but makes up for it when the going gets better.
