The first mod I would reccommend to do is a remap, and then go from there.

Evening y'all just purchased a December 2011 E90 318d M-Sport Plus, got a massive 33% off list price for it and I pick it up tomorrow, was supposed to be tonight until the dealership spotted a chip in the alloy wheel and have sent it off to be refurbed.

Thumbs up 320D -Sport

Good morning & hello everyone. I am currently the owner of an Audi TT 2.0tfsi, but that is going to a new home in the next 10 days. I have shortlisted my next car down to two;
BMW 320D m-sport 2009 model or 2009 Lexus IS220d.
My feeling at the moment is towards the BMW as Lexus seem to suffer from many quality issues and poor mpg figures (some reports as low as mid 30's !!) I get that from my petrol TT.
I know most on this forum are Gona be a bit biased but I was just wondering what peoples views are & what issues should I be mindful of with the BMW.
Thanks people

Hello everyone,

Not a UK resident but thought this sub-forum would be fitting for a 320d owner

I wanted say hi after a brief lurking period. I own an E90 LCI 320d as a daily which is perfect for busy Istanbul streets. I also own a rusty old E30 M3 which is my pride and joy.

I will transform the 320d to M sport "wannabe spec" this week and I will open a new thread about it too, keep watching

Cheers,

Can

Hi All,

I'm new to this forum but am plenty busy on others (m3cutters, uberMpower, xoutpost etc).

I currently have a fully loaded e46 M3 but I'm starting to get the itch, lol.

Been reading plenty of threads on here (seems to be a well run forum too), Hope I can make a contribution at some point.

I'm glad I have read some threads, as I was looking at Big Motoring World, as they have a big selection of cars, but the Rep they have is hideous, so I'll steer well clear of them, so thanks for that.

I'll be Looking (but not to seriously, yet), for an e92, 320, 325 or 330 I or D, (with low CO2), BTH not bothered which yet, but I deffo don't want the 335 TT versions (well I don't think so yet).

Preferred spec would be:

Must have:
Coupe,
Manual gearbox,
sunroof,
Pro Nav, TV.
Sports seats,

I'll consider an SE but only if it has the sports seats already.

Preferred:
sparkling graphite or space grey,
heated and electric leather seats,
BT, voice command,
DAB radio,

Be nice if it had:
Folding mirrors,
Rear blind,
Uprated sounds (although I can do this myself),
DSP??
Piano black trim
Ipod/Iphone interface,
Xenons,
Style 225 (mv4's) alloys,
de-chromed trim (black chrome),
PDC front and back,
chilled drinks compartment (I know, I know....),
60k or less (but I'm flexible on that if the condition is good).

Age is not that important as long as it's clean.

I know it's a fairly high spec, but they are out there it is just finding one.

Anyway Glad to be here.

BR//John
