In my country the quality of gas and diesel is not constant, but I have 25000 kms without any problems.

Do you plan to order M adaptive suspension?
Not M-Adaptive but I'm planning to add Bilstein B6 dampers and H&R Sport Springs. The power kit adds another 50nm of torque and around 25bhp. The intercooler also get's upgraded. The 328i on paper does 0-100 km/h in 6.1 sec with 98 RON. With poor quality of fuel expect it to worsen by atleast 0.5 secs. The 320d's stick figure to 0-100 is 7.4 secs which after the power kit and upgraded intercooler and air filter goes down to around 6.9 secs. Tuning a 328i is out of question considering the fuel quality. SO, in real world, considering our conditions, the actual difference between the 320d and 328i is 0.3-0.4 secs to the 100 mark and also knowing that in the long run the engine would be effected by the use of low octane fuel, I'm inclined towards the 320d.
