Another BMW Defector
« on: February 03, 2013, 09:10:44 pm »
Time to say bye bye to the Mk6 GTD and welcome my new company car  :driver: :driver:





328i M Sport with lots of toys. To say the BMW is a setup up in terms of technology would be an understatement. So far I really can't any find any fault with the car.

Features the new N20 BMW engine which is a 245ps 2.0 turbo. Soon to be tweaked with a nice exhaust, a map, some springs or coilovers and some better brakes  :smiley:

That, 'I love Volkswagen' tattoo on your arse cheeks is going to be embarrassing at the Christmas Doo now.  :signLOL:
I never thought you would be prized out of a VW.  :popcornsoda:

I know, it's felt very strange going to a BM dealer on Friday to collect this  :signLOL:

With the Mk6 gone and the Mk5 going this week I am down to just the Mk2 Golf now  :surprised:

Edit - And as Mr H says Mrs P also has a VW too

YEEEESSSSSSSSS.

Did you not spec the M-brakes? Job jobbed. You can surely retrofit them.

Have you got the iPhone app that lets you unlock the doors and set the climate and stuff? Get it.
Sideways yo!

It was a dealer demo otherwise I would have speced the M Sport brakes, but your right I am sure it's possible to just buy the parts  :smiley:

Yep all app'ed up, just waiting for the registration of the ConnectedDrive to be completed so I can get my user name and password  :fighting2:

Nice motor mate, my Bro has a '62 plate 530d as a company car, the whole motor is quite impeccable tbf.  BMW really have pushed things on.  I love the variable suspension settings.
