Its a 135i M Sport Coupe. I ordered it with no model designation as I think it looks better without the badges on the back.  :smiley:

stunning motor - 135i  :happy2:

3lite twinturbo kicking out 306bhp, clarkson rates this as the best bmw they do and just as quick as an m3 in 1/4 mile and handles better.

would like one of these next  :drool:

Lovely motor matey, spotted one in the petrol station the other month and they sound brilliant.

Are they the BMWperformance seats? Not sure what their called but they look very similar Recaros.

Ah should have noticed it wasnt drinking the devils juice from the rev counter  :embarrassed:


Very nice, went to have a look at one before I got the ED30 but was that little bit more expensive and the Eddy suits me better.

Thanks for the positive replies guys  :happy2: I test drove a LOT of cars, and was almost about to give up and keep the GTI, but once I test drove the 135i that was it. Sounds great, pulls like a steam train from just 1300 rpm and is a great drive.

Its not quite the same model, but Kermit likes it  :driver:

I like alot but I still can't help but think they are a bit of a chicks car? Sorry dude I'm not dissing your car it's got a monumental engine and Im sure it goes like stink, but it's a bit dinky!

I've driven ALL BMW's but this one so maybe a blast would help with my misconceptions?  :confused:

Anywho, enjoy the car and can't wait to see some nice pics after you've detailed it! Is the Batcave ready for her?
