Car for the wife - Coupe

[ShaunB]

HI guys

In the market for a new car for the wife, been looking at 125i msport and 135i msport.

Having a N54 myself I am trying to avoid having two Out of motorplan expensive cars, but the wife is adamant on a 135i.

How does the 125i compare to the 135i, pros and cons, except for power.

Fuel consumption, maintenance etc?

Dude speak to Vader on the forum, He is at Sandton auto and he will help you with whatever u looking for

He sorted me out with my car

125i 6 cylinder N/A is a bit of a dog.
What about an N55 135?
120d is also lekker.

Yea. Unfortunately they're not very quick up at altitude.

Well I won't deny it ... I've lost to nearly everybody in stop light drags. 😬 it's very lazy up here and the 135i is world's away.

135 convert:rollsmile:

The NA 125 is rather lazy up at altitude. Really need to keep the rpms high to get her going. That will result in heavy.comsumption.

If she is like my wife I will go with 135 option.

Good luck

Bank Manager does not agree.

Problem with the 135i is the wife wants it to make whaaap Tsssssh and that is ofcource gonna come out of my pocket:crazylaugh:

Thanks for the feedbank guys, going to look at a 135i tomorrow in pretoria.

What is better than a 135 and a 335, a space grey 135 and a space grey 335raise:

you can take out a aftermarket warranty for piece of mind if out of motor plan, I took one out with Motorvaps

 

[pimpassdaddy]

120d > 125i anyday at altitude!

Stick a piece of lego under the accelerator pedal to limit pedal movement.
That way she can only apply a certain % of throttle and can never fully floor it.
Safer and cheaper on fuel :crazylaugh:
