Charlton's Koup

Had some time on Saturday morning and decided to get the car up in the air to give the suspension a once over. While under the car I thought, mmm this mid box is unwanted weight and the F30 made me enjoy a loud cold start. So I asked the guys to cut it out and fit a straight pipe in preparation for a planned mod once the house stuff is sorted and settled in.

And then?
I agree, no soundclip is dreadful!
 
The Koup is now nearing 95 000km so a service is due soon at 98 000. Nothing has happened. Been settling in and doing "new" home stuff.

Its a weird relationship, just as I start thinking mmm I like it a lot I am greeted with typical front wheel drive characteristics. Cant fault the car otherwise, she does her duties brilliantly and the "whoosh" sounds make me act 9 years old.

She might stay on even when I after get back into a BMW. My daughter thinks its "cute with the wheels that look like flowers" :rolleyes:

Looking good my bro, these are actually quite fun to drive.

I rate keep her as a daily and treat yourself to an old school M or an inline 6 when the time is right.

Any idea how the F30 is doing at its new home ? If I'm not mistaken she's with your cousin now.
