If you are planning to average 300 miles per week then you will probably sooner rather than later hit most of the specific faults relating the the 35i / 35is..
Having had a quite heavily tuned 20i version which is essentially the same car as the 28i I’d say that a tuned 28i maybe an option to consider..
A re-mapped / tuned 28i would have the same power n torque as a stock 35i..not a 35is plus it’s a lighter more nimble car than the 35i/35is.
Of course a few people get excited about the 4 cylinder vs 6 cylinder argument.
A re-mapped 28i would eat a 30i which has little room for tweaking.
The other point reference 30i is that production was halted in 2011 so they tend to be older and certainly in the UK tend to less well optioned.

THANKS for the reply, any issues it being a 4 cylinder pushing the numbers of a six? Displacement and pressure could cause issues 50k to 100k down the road? Curious what the major issues are with the 28i.
