Old noob

[danieljames]

Hi all.
Been a lurker for very long and a member for even longer.
Had an E36 325i that I owned for 8 and a half years but sadly had to sell in 2021. (Small boot and all).
Had a few vehicles in between but... YIPEEEEE!!! IM BACK IN A BEEMA BABY .

Been looking for an e90 for a while and am now the proud owner of a Sparkling Graphite Metal 2006 e90 325i msport.

6 on the floor and rear wheel drive...aaaaah...motoring 101.

She's super neat and everything works on the car. She's sitting on 218000km but from my (admittedly limited) experience, a BMW 6 cylinder should run for years to come.

All my previous cars have been very mechanical with basic engines, no DISA valves and Valetronic...eek! Did have dipsticks tho. So I'll probably be driving y'all nuts looking for advice.
At least I was able to get a Bentleys manual for my new baby tho.
So this is my second intro really and I'll accept all the pats on the back with gratitude.


Sorry for the boooo-ring pics. With work and all I haven't had a chance to take her out on a nice drive yet.

beautiful car bud, is it going to be your daily?

Much appreciated Rocky. Yip, she'll be my daily. It's such a pleasure driving this after my loud obnoxious toyota 20v.

Roll up the windows and escape for the outside world.
One more after a wash and nanogaurd final touch.

Congrats, man. She is a real beauty! As someone who has previously owned an E36 and two E46s, I can confirm from experience that those inline 6s are definitely quite reliable, as I never experienced any major issues on any of them, despite the E36 325i having close to 300k on it when I bought it (t'was my very first car). Only sold it so I could upgrade to an E46 330i
