Nice spec, but how on Earth do you heel and toe with that brake/throttle spacing?

Big feet and big feet lol

Well I'm afraid I have nothing more I can say, well not until I hit the big 1200mile mark and run in service, then its full throttle ahead ; )

I know my reply's also off topic, but good on you, melvster. With a solid attitude to work/life like that, you'll go far.

And back on topic: Come on aussie, how long should 1200 miles take you? We're waiting!

Hey I am working on it lol

Have a few xmas cards to drop off so a midnight drive is in order lol

Moving over to another photobucket account

Sorted......

Thanks for all the comments, I was not expecting to see so much favourable people on the looks, to be honest pictures do not really show the bulging aggressiveness of this car, I reference a female bodybuilder when describing the 1M, It is not generally beautiful, but the definition and symmetrical lines grab your attention and you appreciate the efforts that have gone into the build......

The side on shots are fantastic. A couple of questions from me: have the pedals got BMW performance covers on? And, are the wheels standard - I didn't think they had such a shine to them? Rear spoiler looks superb lovely finishing touch. I saw an orange one in the wild in Nottingham the other day and it didn't leave me liking it as much as I do in white. I think black would be my choice.

Oh, Melvster - good work, chuffed for you. Hope it works out as you want it too.

Yes mate they are the BMW Performance pedels, wheels are standard, surprising how well they come up with a few coats of jetseal and good old fashion elbow grease, as for the orange, looks spot on in the sunshine, we did go through a change colour stage but it was short lives lol

pulling 4 second 60s in the wet is quite entertaining

Haha only just seen this. www,specsavers.com
I love the look of the 1M. The rear spoiler definitely adds to it.
I can run the 1200 miles in if you'd like

A few to many of these and he may even love it ..........


Getting there with the mileage, just over 900 in a month, that is a record for me lol

[aussieinlondon]

Thanks mate,

I am yet to see one while i have been out an about myself..........

Thought the 135i was mad, this must be bonkers!

TX.

I like the 135i alot, not so much of a fan of the DCT, but the 135i drives well but a little sedate compared with the 1M but that is expected..........

[aussieinlondon]

A touch of hyper black and piano black, thanks to my mate Lee @ www.crashcarecentre.com

Would have to agree about the 500 but still like em all the same especially with the wrap removed, looked spot on : )

Was gonna happen sooner rather than later, gloss black has been done by a few alpine white owners so thought the hyper black will give it a bit of a style and the P bear pulls it off nicely.........

Now off to Forge tomorrow.
