My new (old) ride

[msm]

After my Mini accident, I decided to sell the car as soon as I get it back from the panelbeaters (yes, I'm still waiting :cursin: ). Anyway, was not actively looking for a replacement daily driver, but came across this and grabbed it. Will hopefully be collecting the car by tomorrow ....

It's a 2003 330i Individual. Mileage is currently 93K:

And yes, it has DVD based Nav ....

---

Only thing bugging me about the car is the sh!t tyres. It has Dunflops 7000Ds which were extremely noisy when I test drove the car. Also has 225s streched on the back instead of 245s :banghead: But I guess those can be changed easily.

Lovely car there bro... I love them e46 330's. You gonna enjoy it. Believe me... As for the tyre's. At least you got the correct size rim's at the back. I had narrows all round. And manual the correct way to go...

Thanks dude. This is my 2nd E46 330i - had one before the X5 as well, hence I wasted no time in buying this one.

Would prefer a manual if I were living in the Swiss Alps , but in Gauteng traffic the Auto is perfect for me ...

That's nice!!
I had 7000D's on my Polo for a while and not even on such a small car did I enjoy them.... :nono:

Congrats...

hmm, I got dunlop sp 9000 on my 540i. and they are absolutely KICKASS. Crap loads of grip, feels like I can corner harder than the pirreli's I had on. but then again, its also kak expensive at almost 2K a tyre.

also, still very comfortable and very quiet...

I think it's mainly the SP7000D that's the black sheep of the family. The rest of their range seems decent.

yeah, most probably, I noticed on tyrerack, their ratings wern't as high as some of the others.. oh well..

yep, i also have them on the front and they are NOISY! so much so that they are to be replaced as asap, finished or not..

very nice ride though , gz.. wish mine had nav.. :thumbsup:

I have 7000 sports on the back of the e36. I agree, they have to go next month.

At least they are not as bad as the 6060 range.

Nice 330i by the way. I still like that shape.
