New Opel Insignia or used BMW 3 Series?

If you had the option between buying a new high spec automatic Opel Insignia with leather for €39k or a one-year-old BMW 3 Series for similar money, which would you recommend?

Hi Michael,

It kinda depends on the spec of the cars in question. If, for instance, it's a 2.0 160hp Insignia versus a 110hp 316d, then go for the Opel. If it's a 320d, then go for the Beemer.
