Will be picking up a 330D SE in less than two weeks. Looking forward to it but sometimes get a bit concerned with some of the issues raised in a number of forums: swirl flaps. run flats etc. But should be good. Biggest problem so far has been trying to get a quote for an Ipod connector from the dealer I'm buying the car from. Took about two weeks to get a price confirmed.

Trying to decide if its worth getting the AUC service plan for the next two years...

Hi All,

Just wanted to say a quick hello.

I have had my e90 for 4 weeks now and its running in very well indeed.

I have found the forum really useful and the info about the re-maps have taken the pain out of going it alone and the risks of finding a poor map that kills the car.
Evolve re-maps look good so far but nothing for the newer 325D 204BHP engine. Will have to wait I guess.

Anyway, take it easy.

Hi guys,

Been looking at buying an E90 for the last month or so and have found one that suits me down to the ground. An '06 330i M-Sport in Le Mans blue. Been chatting to the seller and sorting a couple of minor problems and should be putting a deposit down today and picking it up on the 5th March, all going well

Hello All
I've recently order a new company car - the 320ed. It the first BMW i've had (the missus has a 1 series), and will be completely different to my current Focus ST. But the fuel is getting ridiculas, and the tax bill will be much better with the ED.

I've gone for a few options:

3 spoke sports leather steering wheel
Cruise control
DAB Digital radio
Dakota leather - Black
Electric front seats with 2 position memory
Exterior mirror pack
Folding front centre armrest + storage
Folding rear seat head rests
Front sports seats with electric side bolster adjustment
Front/rear park distance control
Harman/Kardon logic 7 surround sound system
Heated front seats
Heated steering wheel
High gloss black interior
Individual anthracite headlining
Individual sun protection dark tinted glazing
Media pack - Professional - 3 Series
Alpine white
USB/audio interface
Visibility pack

Looking forward to getting it now...

Regards
Paulf

Hi, guys. Just thought I'd say hello, finally managed to justify a Beemer after years of having to shift kids (sometimes sick), gardening supplies, building materials, dirty dogs, etc, in mundane hatchbacks. Can finally enjoy driving a car as opposed to a four-door delivery vehicle, yee-haa!!

Hi to my new friends. I joined the forum as a friend told me about it. I have been reading some excellent posts on the Alpine upgrade for my E90. Was impressed by what others siad that I am getting one fitted next week. Will post my thoughts on it on once it is installed. Off to loo at posts on more topics now

[3jtr]

Just joined. Despite having had a BM for 2 years I am still finding out so much from these posts

Evening all

A bit slow off the mark - got my 335i coupe April 2010 and have been meaning to get involved here.

I had been thinking of an E46 330i but when I saw this e92 at my local dealer I knew it was the car for me. It didn't have a long list of options but it was my favourite colour (Montego Blue), with my favourite leather (Jade grey), manual, no-smoker, immaculate condition with only 14k miles (56 plate), 18" wheels (not so keen on 19" personally) and most important, it felt 'right'.

A few pics from the day I picked it up :









I've already fitted a Dension 500 ipod/usb gateway, and the BMW Alpine audio upgrade (both highly recommened btw!). This year as the weather improves I have a couple of other ideas brewing... perhaps in the diff-related arena...
