Great looking 1er. I especially like the rear lights. You considered black grilles for the front at all?

Mr Ranger 6's old car ?


Fantasticly capable cars with the above modifications, also look into getting a Quaiffe ATB limited slip diff fitted as they help tremendously !



Great buy

Not really a fan of them. Main priority was the performance air intake, now on order, then possibly a remap.

Does the BMW Performance exhaust add much to the sound? The pipes look business, nice mods.

Adds to both performance and sound. 130i is a serious beast of a car.

Looking forward to fitting the performance air intake next week. Some 130i owners say the simota intake gives better BHP gain but I prefer sticking to OEM parts.

That is a beauty!

[rumple]

nice one the 130 is the only bangle bm id own , nice choice sir

ive had mine 3500miles now. Its such a good allrounder. There are things i miss from my 328 sport (mostly an LSD) but i cant fault how you can cruise along the m'way or attack your favorite round.

MPG is also respectable. Mines sitting at 28 av.

You can call the 1-series many things, but 'beautiful', no.
