maddox710 Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Okay so another bmw, so far had it about 3 weeks and love it, so refined and comfy. Definitely not as exciting as the glanza but no more Jap cars till I've settled down in house haha Got this for a ace price considering the price and big spec Hope you lot like it No plans for it really just enjoy it for what it is, only needs a m3 rarb and a couple of little bits but all In good time Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Great cars to drive i used to have one. Jus get ready for crazy amounts of stuff to go wrong lol. If you still have run flats on it. Get them off before the rear alloys crack. Plus they are terrible tyres.I had to replace both rear calipers the abs pump and both rear abs sensors. They may be unreliable as fuck but they are superb one of the best chassis ive ever experienced and when they are working they are a thing of beauty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm the latter haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you leave them on the rear i can almost guarantee those rear mv4s will crack and they are 550 per wheel from bmw and 350 for a 2nd hand uncracked wheel from ebay. I spent about a grand and a half on rear wheels and tyres before just going amd buying new wheels and never looked back.Heres mine: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But it's great to drive, the 3 series has always been hailed and bmw ultimate driving machine, okay the e9x were a little softer than normal but I bet it would thrash any starlet to 60mph of the lights and maybe even 100 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
