i assume this is with spirited driving?

Well no because mine gets about 650kms on a tank and I have the 120d which averages at 6.5lts per 100 the 135i averages around 12-14lts so your luck to get past 350kms on a tank...

If fuel cost does come to mind:
+1000km per tank vs sub >500km per tank

The only time I ever managed 1000km was on long distance trip...I’d get Jhb to ballito and halfway back up and get 1000...normal Jhb driving my average was about 800.

Anybody care to share their knowledge/experience with a M135i vs a F30 335i.

Clean M135i's are really scarce but I have seen a few good almost fully spec'd F30 335i's for sale.

Also are the PWG models recommended if one is not going to mod the car or just stick to a EWG model either way.

yeah man and thanks for that. just trying to get information on how the M135i compares to to F30 335i.
Is there a difference?
Other than one being 1 series and the other a 3 series.
Does that little m badge mean something more?

Yes, the 1 series feels more agile than the 3 at high speed.

have you driven both or just based on car reviews online etc?

I guess I will just have to drive both and see from there.
I have driven the F20 125i, F30 335i and the F30 330d. I feel better control on the 1 series (especially around corners and curves), the size difference is noticeable for me.
