So, any 2.0 turbo owners out there....
When I test drive this 63 plate LCI car, is there anything I need to look out for?

Ive got the none LCI so am aware of the basics to check, but did the LCI facelift introduce any issues? Any common faults with the engine?
It’s always handy to know if any issues that need looking at before taking the plunge!

Hi, the 20i engine is pretty much the same as used in the pre lci cars (electronic wastegate solonoid as opposed to the vacuum type on the earlier cars) the noise level was also reduced with a better sound attenuated engine cover.
It will have a bit more torque than your 23i and won't need revving as hard to make progress
If you feel you want more power it's easy to get a lot more with the n20 engine.

I know there’s a whole debate about the turbo vs straight six thing, but while the straight six sounds great and is no slouch, I do miss the instant shove of a bmw turbo.
I also miss having Bluetooth, DAB and I drive.......

wow cant belive they were still using vacum wastegates on 2010-12 cars when my 2005 320cd is on an electrronic wastegate!

Yeah, it does seem to have taken its time filtering through-turbo lag maybe?
