So as the title states, what did you drive prior to owning your first Bmw? I see allot of X Toyota and Vw owners who now drive beemers. I was fortunate to have a Bmw as my first car, however I did own a Toyota Conquest at one point.:thumbs:

I had a 2002 Opel Astra 1.8 CDE. A few months back i bought my first BMW.
A 2008 330i! What a absolute pleasure. The Opel was great, but the BM is just in a different class (not just on power).

I've only owned BMW's.

Had an E46, wrote it off...:cry:
Then I got an E90.

But my parents had a 1989 Opel Monza 1.6. The most unreliable car ever!!!
:argh:
We were replacing parts every other day and we'd replace the timing belt almost as often as we refueled.

To this day, my parents will not touch anything Opel with a stick

all toyota prior.., 180i Sport Conquest, 130 Corolla, 1.6 GL Corolla, 1.3 Corolla. Just couldn't anything in the Toyota Stable to meet my needs, either felt i was paying too much for so little car and no really sport option..., i dont consider any of the recent TRDs in SA a sport car, more like like Toyota Racing Disaster

Howzit bud the car makes 145.1 whp in Gauteng the exhaust is a dual 50mm which then goes to dual 56mm from where the centre box is meant to be all the way to the rear silencer. Only mods are exhaust (No branches) an Uniq + all this is with a totally screwed vanos and the original engine with +- 350 xxx km on the clock. what about you?
