I'm keeping it basic, alpine white , standard 18" etc. The only extras are xenons and pdc... I love carbon bits on white (as you can see from my current ride) but you right... it burns in the pocket.

This is more or less the goal...

Yep dont want to go overboard but as I am an audiophile, I HAD to have the HK system. Thought i'd miss the speed and agility of the gti but this is just awesome to cruise in :rollsmile:

I've only done 56km (all in sport+ mode) so can't really comment yet...

Here is a pic of mine... had some cosmetics done... what do you think?

Hey guys,

So i took a drive up to JHB this past weekend. Car was an absolute pleasure to drive! Only gripe I have is that the fuel consumption is still pretty high (11.2l/100km). And i was just cruising, 120/140km/ph. Is this normal for other 320i drivers? Mileage is sitting at around 2500km. Even my ex fully modded g6 gti did around 7l/100km lol. I would like to hear the view from other drivers

Cheers!

Way above is not even the word! Reviews state 4.8l/100km on highway driving. Its like more than twice the quoted figures

have you reset your consumption or is it still from new? Mine is still high... running at 15.2 but haven't reset and done 500km (town driving sport mode) now...

At least mine is not that bad even if above stated amount: They claim 4.6l/100km I get 5.3l/100km:fencelook:

Just installed M-Performance carbon fibre rear spoiler :rollsmile:


Hey bud, how much did you pay for the M Performance boot lid spoiler? Have you seen the latest deal that they have at BMW, R50 000 for a complete M Performance package, which also opens up the option of the Topaz Orange. Something different and beautiful.
I have the 320i M sport with Dakota Red interior and quite a few extras, I'm really happy with the car but would love the following;
- Black grill
- Boot lid spoiler
- Side skirts
- Rear diffuser
Aaaah sh!t, looks like i pretty much listed the bulk of the exterior options available...

The fuel consumption on mine has never dropped below 11.4 and i drive it gentle in eco pro mode. But when i am on the highway and i take it easy, it drops to about 7. I have just over 4000km on the clock, everyone says that it should drop once the engine wears in... these engines must be the strongest in the world because it should have been worn in about 2500km ago
