RWD.. 4WD models are badged iX and rocking horse teeth in NZ. Whatever you do take it to a specialist BMW shop to get a PPI done

I dont think that an e90 is going to be much better, even one with a smaller engine. Its going to depend massively on how are where your driving. Buy a leaf FYI My 330 e91 auto averages around 10.5/l 100km

All you need is a ListerBell STR Stratos and you have my dream garage. You bastard

An M3 Touring, and a Clio V6... Thats just being greedy!

If I had room for a third N52B30 and second E91 330... Id be all over it I even half considered buying it, fixing the little things up, and flicking it off for more $!

Jebus, 5k?! Dont do it!

That is porn.

Timing chains, oil leaks, etc etc etc. Pretty notorious (particularly if you compare it to a japanese 2l 4 pot with the same output )

123D or a 130i, the only reason to get one of the shitty 4 pots petrols is because you do not like your wife (This is how you form your argument for getting a decent one ) My 130i manual averages 8.6l/100km (and I dont go out of my way to drive economically.... You can either have a unreliable 4 pot that works its ass off hauling around a 1.4 ton hatch back, or a reliable smooth 6 that moves it without breaking a sweat.

400bhp, 550Nm.. and an open diff ? The rear brakes must get a hammering by TC

Ceramic coating. Its legit. Slapped it on 6 weeks ago - Sonax Profiline. Got it filthy, snow foamed it, got rained on, then the sun came out.... No water spots, no polishing, shineyAF!

Anyone ever replaced the bush on an E8/9x blower motor? Ive lubed mine previously using a light machine oil, and it solved it for 6 months, now its squeeking again. Spending $200 on a new assembly seems crazy when its just the bush ? Tempted to try pull it out and replace it with a bearing.

I remember doing it in a Mini clubman in a bar in Chch a few years ago, walked out the door and went full speed over a kerb and little garden, hilarious.

Yeah I though the same, it might just be Type R civic style though with multiple exhaust tips for the added thrust.

Kill it with fire. FWD and looks like a Daewoo. This is why they lost the war!

Exhaust, a flash, and a BOV is not modding the hell out of

certed for coilovers, lsd etc, and relatively low ks. Be a good buy for 7k, just needs all the nonsense pulled off it and a manual box installed!

Its some sort of fridgefreezer trying so very, very, very hard to a be a golf GTi.

Currently at 4k, might go cheap!

Hyper/Tonys

Nope, 8.7l/100km (or 27mpg) mostly open road is what I do. It sits at like 6l at 100ishkmh. My 1.6 corolla used more gas

I average 8.7L/100km with the 130, and dont nana it, I thought it was good on gas (for a 3L hot hatch) Stock suspension is definitely crashy on some roads, there are fixes though!
