Mine goes like shit off a shovel, especially in Sport and Sport + modes. It's like having 3 different cars in one.  :)
I'm guessing all things are relative.  330d has never struck me as what I'll call quick, though generally quick enough :y

It has decent mid range and top end. Low down it's all straight 6 torque. The 8 speed box helps make it feel more refined.
Onanists always think outside the box.

As you say, its relative.  I've gone from a clapped out 178bhp Ford Mundano to a BMW 530d with an estimated 300bhp that goes like the clappers!  :)

Sadly you will soon get used to it, I am currently on 300bhp with 650Nm and it feels average now, the next one is 460bhp and 660Nm and I am sure that will feel normal after 6 months  ;D

First time I rode a 1000cc bike I nearly shat myself.  Then before I melted mine, I was riding it everywhere on the throttle end stop ;D

Mm... My Evo has gone through a few upgrades and is now 400/400 at 1100kg front and rear LSD. I thought it was ungodly powerful and luckily I still think the same,  but I don't have so much fear of God when I open up. This will probably be all it's going to get though as I'm getting older and it seems to be more ferocious (to me) and doesn't allow so much time for mistakes, loving it though at the moment. 70 soon so maybe I will have to have a think if I want to survive ☹️😢. Moto cross resulted in a leg full of metal but to be honest even my CR 500, only scared me as much as this car can when pushed.

Steve, as I said give me a ring when you're down I will have a chat to you about how we're going to sort any mot problems that may arise👍😉
