The General's F13 640d MSport

Hi Guys.
So as many if you know, my E92 335i was sold in January, I got an offer I just couldn't pass up and this has afforded me the opportunity to get a car I've pined over for a very long time.
I give you my, new to me, 2013 F13 640d MSport.
Alpine White III
DakotaBlack Leather
Heads up Display
Lane change assist and warning
Rear view Camera
Panoramic roof

Unfortunately no Adaptive LED or 360⁰ Camera spec'd on this model.

I saw the car advertised at BMW Sandton, and before I even went to see it for the first time, I checked online for the dimensions and took a tape measure to my garage, as the car is a full 30cm longer than the E92 was.

Luckily she fits with a little space to spare, but not much. 🤣

Without further adue, here are some pics
@osiris took to go collect the car, and BMW Sandton gave me the full treatment on collection.

As with any used car, there are always a few things to sort out, so I'll be using this thread to document what I do.
The car was in its past ownership involved in a bit of a bumper bashing, so there is some corrections to do which I'm in the process of discussing with BMW, but they were honest as to its history and I went into the deal knowing this.
So far I've removed the black "///M" badge that people love to add to the trunk lids, why, I dunno it's beyond me.

Loving the drive of this car, a d sleek look it really is an upgrade in every way from the E92, and as much as I loved the 335i, I'm glad I've made the change.

Will update as I go along.
 
As one of the first things to be updated, I contacted @Danny2 of DSCMotorsport for some help with updating my iDrive Navigation to the latest maps as they were still 2012 maps.
As a true champ, he helped me out at 10pm on a Saturday night, the update went flawless and I can mark this as always a great update to do, keeping things fresh and up to date.

Will be back in touch with Danny when I do some coding on a few modules again.
Always good service from him and great knowledge.

Congrats bud! Beautiful vehicle. Wish you many many happy kms!

Once settled in would love to know how the power feels in comparison to your 335i when stock? Considerably more torque but also a bigger vehicle.

Congrats bud! This car is such a beast and felt amazing to drive. The sound this car makes is unreal for a Diesel! from the interior when we went for a spirited drive that night it honestly has a bit of a V8 sound to it. The torque is intoxicating!
