Hi guys,

I registered here a while ago and haven't been very active. I've always loved fast cars but never thought I'd buy a BMW. Those orange dash lights were just too much for me :rollsmile:

I've always been a vag fan. Started with a polo 1.6 in university, had that for a few years and then got a Focus ST 225 in electric orange for my 21st. When I started working, I bought my first car, a Golf 7 GTI DSG. I loved it!! It's such an awesome car and a brilliant all rounder. It was a bit lazy compared to my stage 2 ST, so my modding addiction took over soon after I got it. I had it less than a year when the unthinkable happened, my meth controller failed...

I got it sorted out and back to the way it was (out of my own pocket :cry:) but I stopped enjoying it as much and it just became something to get me from A to B. A petrol head knows you can't drive a car and feel that way about it, so I started thinking about a replacement. I had a tough time deciding between a Golf 7R and a M135i, but in the end, I got this:

M235i. It's got:
Sport automatic transmission
Tyre pressure monitoring
Xenon headlights
Instrument cluster with extended contents
Park Distance Control (PDC), front & rear
Glass Sunroof, electric with sliding and vent function
Headlamp washer system
Hi-Fi Loudspeaker System Harman/kardon
Navigation System, Professional

I've had it a few days now and I'm loving it. It's got a very different feel to the VW, more solid and comfortable. It pulls really nicely too! and then there's that sound :blowheart:

Welcome! Nice car indeed! :cartel:

Most definitely this is much better than a golf. More stable and o so fun to drift, go throw it into a corner, that coupled with the pure bliss from the turbo is what makes the 3.0 Turbo such a pleasure to drive daily. We here just love our x35/40s! Have fun! :rollsmile:

Congrats,
Plans?
No plans. I'll keep it stock for as long as I can, If I have to mod, I'll use bmw approved stuff. I'll most likely start with MPE. I plan on keeping the motorplan on this one.
