dave72nzl 1 Report post Posted February 2, 2016 Hi After looking for a good few months I've just bought an 09 130i. Took it to the Manawatu and back over the weekend, really enjoyed it.. Just need to ditch the run flats and give it a really good polish. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olaf 3315 Report post Posted February 2, 2016 welcome, Dave. one of these days I'll have to try a 130i, sounds like they're a hoot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dave72nzl 1 Report post Posted February 5, 2016 Yup, I'm thinking non RFT. I do like continentals, on the hunt for a set that won't break the bank.. I am quite impressed, the 130i really is quite a good laugh! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smac01 12 Report post Posted February 5, 2016 I got Michelin Pilot Sport 3 from Grey Lynn TyreWorx for a sharp price a couple of weeks ago. I'd give them a go if you're in Auckland. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
benpaul12 62 Report post Posted February 9, 2016 Welcome! I've got a 130i too while it is a little small at times, it's the best beemer I've had from my e39/e46s! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
