New here - just bought a 320si

I once won a knobbly knee contest. My knees are about as knobbly as the first girl on the right. I don't look as good in a skirt though...

Don't look good in a halter, either.

Poor-fitting footwear- a travesty.

Yeah that's right. Shortly after the photo was taken I downed the bottle of Scotch...

Knobbly knees off-topic?

320si drivers are famed for this feature. I suppose newbies don't know this yet...

Without someone like you around, Paul, where on earth would we be? On-topic? Possibly. Laughing? I doubt it.

Looking forward to re-kindling our 'love-hate' relationship at UK5, Paul.

Now, what was this thread about, again?

Welcome to the 320si club Dan.

Has yours got anymore above the poverty spec (like mine).

Let's hope you don't have the problems I have.....

Make sure you get a trip to Germany on the ring with it - or the Autobahn. It's awesome at 140mph - Its sounds superb.

You might find the ride and grip is better if you keep the wheels at full load pressure. As it seems to wobble a bit at standard.

Mine is going into the garage again for yet another service.....but I have now been told today that BMW have NOT issued v29 for my engine and have no plans to do so!!!

So the stealer has now agreed to take the car in for investigation as BMW financial services have instructed them to do so! (By the way my lease company isn't affiliated with BMW in any way - So I have no idea what chain reaction I have triggered by bitching about the idling fault to all and sundry.

Dan don't let my comments put you off when the car is started its lots of fun - take car practising your exit speeds at roundabouts

Hi guys,

Well had the car just over a week now and its great! A million times better than my old Mondeo ST.

Not sure whats standard on it but its got full dakota leather, bluetooth etc.
