Hi everyone
So, after a few months of weighing up options in terms of cars, I have finally decided to pull the trigger on one.
I was deciding between the F30 320i (both N20 + B48), 320d as well as the E90 335i since at the time I knew an F30 335i would have been out if the question due to it being well over R300k. I had thought that I’d end up with an F30 320i (B48) to the point that I test drove one that I was interested in and nearly ended up buying it. However, while still thinking about it, I had a look at my autotrader emails and my dream car was for sale within my budget via private sale. Immediately went to view it and test drive it, and that’s when I knew that I wouldn’t find a deal as good as this one again and I bought it.
2015 BMW F30 335i M-Sport
-Alpine White
-121 000km
-19 Inch Wheels
-Gloss Black Kidney Grills
-Harman Kardon Sound
-Cruise Control
-Pro Nav
-Sunroof
-Dual Zone Climate Control
-Black Leather M-sport seats
-Brake Assist
-LED Headlights
-Paddle Shifters
I only fetched it on Monday afternoon after work. The feeling of owning my dream car at 25 hasn’t sunk in yet as I still look at it for a few minutes every night before going to bed. It is daily driven and I am absolutely enjoying it. I currently have no mods on it, however I will tune it in due time.
From what I’ve heard and researched, the N55 EWG is a fairly reliable engine. I am aware that one of the major problems with these cars are the chargepipe which I do intend to replace with an aluminum one soon. I do plan on keeping this car for a very long time, and I would like to know what are the possible issues I may face with it and what may need to be replaced as a preventative measure, as well as the cost for each replacement.
Thanks In advance guys
