My 2018 340i

Some of you Fanatics would know I was pondering for a very long time with the idea of changing the 30d for a 40i. After all the deliberation and viewings, I came across this well specced 340i at a BMW dealership in Cape Town with 51k kms. Took her for a test drive and immediately knew it was worth changing over.

Extras include:
Dakota Black sport seats with blue stitching
Electric and heated seats
LED headlights and fogs
M Sport suspension
6WB cluster
HK Sound
Navigation professional
OEM M performance kit
M Performance exhaust


The 30d will be missed but with my current lifestyle, I travel about 800kms per month so I can certainly live with the fuel bill.

I think this OEM look is so perfect and have no plans on changing anything on the exterior anytime soon, maybe black side mirror covers.
As for performance mods, I will need to wait another year until the warranty is up and decide from there.

It's great to look at. There is a post from a member on the forum I've seen before who retro fitted the cluster. If you're thinking of going that route search for the post

Beautiful! Very very well done. Wishing you all the happy driving.
How are you enjoying the cluster?
Thanks bud. Although its just one element of the interior, the 6WB adds so much more of a modern touch to it IMO.
It's a nice change from the classic orange dials which one would have to admit no matter how dated those look, its still a classic BMW style.
