Talk to me, what you got?
it's a white/red leather 3 door manual with speaker and driver display upgrade. April this year so has the nice new steering wheel.Pretty basic but very cheap.
I'm not sure if you can transfer it though.
Anybody know of any great deals justnow going on M135I, Considering getting one at the moment?
Been quoted £2500 deposit,4 years,Estoril Blue, 8 Speed Auto and Sun protecton glass.
£350 a month. Been told that deal is just as good as it will be anywhere even at x-max. John Clarke BMW in Aberdeen couldnt get anywhere near that quote.
Cheers

I'd be very surprised if that actually exists. That's a chunk cheaper than the cheapest of deals when BMW were supporting.£191 + VAT

On a side note, my car was in for a fan replacement yesterday.
It came back with a new fan and a full reprogramming.
Oddly the car feels a bit slower today, and I'm sure the added engine noise has been reduced / changed (which actually annoys me, as I liked it)
Perhaps I'm just looking out for issues. On the plus side it had a good valet.

I had the same problem.

It's certainly possible in the dry, you just have to commit to it in a far higher way than you did in the M3, which makes it too much for the road IMHO.
IF you're getting full on oppo in a 120d in the dry, then you shouldn't have an issue. Let us know how you find it.
Mine's got a few more miles on it now and I've had the opportunity to play. I absolutely see what you mean about having to unsettle it to get the tail into action. It does seem to stick and then some. Tail out action tends to be a little snappy and then gathered up quite quickly. Keeping it there without using momentum is much harder than in the old M3. It's quite comical in the wet how quickly the rear steps out if the revs are too low and then it comes on boost in 2nd. Some very fast steering is required for that. IF you're getting full on oppo in a 120d in the dry, then you shouldn't have an issue. Let us know how you find it.
Overall, I'm finding it great fun and probably quicker than my old E46 M3 on Contis, but not as tactile or as feel-some past the single wheel spin-up stage.

Needs an LSD I suspect...?
Definitely, and like every single non-LSD BMW, thicker rear ARBs too.As much as I dislike the lack of LSD I think it reduces the M135i from 'great' car status down to merely 'good'. I'll be seriously tempted to remedy the issue by way of the M2 when that comes out.

Be a darn sight cheaper just to spend £2k on a diff lol. I think they would benefit from a firmer suspension setup as well, grip is ok due to the tyres, but mine rolls around like a barge in a storm! Wish id PCP'd one instead sometimes, dont really want to spend money tinkering with a lease car ...As much as I dislike the lack of LSD I think it reduces the M135i from 'great' car status down to merely 'good'.

Maybe after the warranty period has ended. I really fancy the Birds LSD and ARBs kit.http://www.birdsauto.com/product-information/bmw-m...
But then you have to convince the wife, change insurance, think about resale (although I'd think these upgrades are quite sought after). It's probably easier to get an M2.
If anyone is interested, this is what mine sounds like now the exhaust has been welded up internally..
