Hi Koeng,

Torquee is the same in both versions, as also end reduction is exactly the same (I checked that in the BMW's web page and catalogues), and that's why I don't understand very well that difference in 80-120km/h as they have same power, same torquee, same transmission... so it's seems too much difference considering they have similar specificiatios and the only difference in 0.4 litres less in the ED.

Regarding the 118d, the answer is Yes, I considered it, it's around 1.500 eur over the 116d. I discarded the 118d because the car is going to be our second car, driven mainly by my wife (who maybe will have enough with the ED version, but I want to drive sometimes the car). If it were the first car, I will go for the 118d.
