Thats actually been de-pimped! The sailwin sportway cheapest sh*t tyres on planet earth, with "supercar spec" sidewalls is just class.

Great format and content, reminds me of garage 4AGE, need more of this.

Thats been retrofitted or maybe was right on the switch over or something weird? If they got optioned with that dial its the vacuum/economy gauge and not oil temp.

Only LCIs got oil temp, I retrofitted it by switching around eproms with a soldering iron and coding f**kery into my PreLCI. I think you could code the "economy" gauge in some PreLCI manuals to do oil temp, but obviously the scale wont be right. Its worth doing as even most OBD2 tools cant figure out the PID for BMW oil temp.

Surprising how little customisation was available for the 6 and 7s, thought would be able to spec them all kinds of stupid, even the colours are all beige as. Seems like 1s & 3s got the most options.

Mine definitely primes the pump in certain circumstances, like doors etc, always has done. The Skoda is worse, if you open the bonnet can hear relays clicking and lots of things whirring... putting itself into emissions check mode I suspect

And standard brakes, painted red.

If anyones after a brown LCI interior, kinda cool. https://www.turners.co.nz/Damaged-Vehicles/Damaged-Cars-for-Sale/bmw/130i/26661542

Could be anything from a wrecked guibo to vanos solenoids. Avoid magic potions, they dont work in gearboxes or engines.

The aeros quite subtle! https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/130i/listing/5254891721
