Family of BMW's

[Skillet]

Yoh, i needed to update this post for a long time... Finally, the time has arrived.

All the above BM;s have been replaced by BM's... Its a family thing...

My father in laws e90 has been sold but not replaced yet. I think he wants a 335i...

My bro's silver TI was sold and replaced by a 330ci

I havent yet seen the car, will see it when im down in dbn soon.

The goldish TI was replaced by a 330ci also, look for thread by KAMZ.

Then, we have the 330ci with the ugly bumper, which was replaced by a M3 drop top...

Needs some work on the drop, i havent seen or driven this one also... I really cant wait to get to dbn now!
So now, i have 2 drop tops in dbn, i guess i will be very biased toward the M3...

I cant wait to go on holiday!!!

What a car!!!

good call on the bumper (removing it)
dump the sides as well

and then go full mtech :thumbsup:

are you sure it has coilovers? looks stock height

Yep, coilies for sure. Have to keep it raised because of the parking lot the car is stored at, the entrance to the driveway is terrible... It had eibach springs on and constantly touched, hence the ugly front bumper, it was the only one we could find at the moment at a good price.

Next time im in dbn, il get a pic of it ground bound. It sits on those split rims very nicely...

Are the coil overs worth the dosh?

OGE34 - I dont think it is. Its quite an effort to turn it up and down. For the 10k, i would have rather put a decent set of springs, like eiback or h&r and used the rest of the money for a decent exhaust.

Coilies are nice on a car you would take on a track often and then park it off while its not on the track.

Bru in Laws 330ci with 19inch CSL reps... Looks good but needs to go lower!

Hi Guys,

Got some news for those interested in the 4 pipe... Uncle will let it go at R320k minimum... Its got 52 000km on clock with valid Mplan. Im not going to put it up in the for sale section as we dont really want to sell it but if we get the price we will let it go...

The 330ci with the CSL reps is also for sale, R170 000. Mileage is 86 000km. Should be in the for sale section shortly...

Time to update this thread... Lots have changed, family members have gone old, moved on but still drive BMW's...

Recently, my brother moved up to JHB. Looking for his new car, he stumbled upon a Z4 3.0 in CT. Our esteemed Twinz was asked to have a look at the car for us and gladly he agreed. Got the go ahead from Charles and a week later, the car was delivered. Huge thanks to Charles for taking the time to see the car, document the faults and test drive the vehicle for us. :ty:





We then had a small wash day at my house yesterday. My 2 cars, my bru's Z4 and my good buddy Kamz's 120d...



LOL - Even the neighbors across started washing their cars.

The z4 and 120d got a 2 step polish (Poor Boys Black hole and Adams Butter Wax). No professional, but they came out good...













My bru in law sold his E46 M3 a year ago, bought a X1 as a family car and last week took delivery of a 2011 335, N55... Car will be coming to me for a clean up and for some cosmetics from Prominetix.





Will be doing some performance mods to the 335 as well. :thumbs:

 

[Arbee]

The n55 335i has been modded..

Cf bits from Prominetix fitted.

Xflow DP and exhaust... Car is currently at Xflow for JB4 install.

Will have it with me for a few days next week. Will get some pics.

Should have a set of 20s fitted also.
