Sparking Graphite BMW

[stugolf]

My car is a E90 330D pre LCI with 231bhp in Sparkling Graphite Grey

I was looking for one in the right spec for a while and chose one over a Edition 30 Golf, its a lovely car, it does everything really well and is a great all-rounder.

The spec is:

Heated Leather
Parking Sensors
Sunroof
iDrive with Voice Command
BlueTooth
Xenons with Angel Eyes
Auto Headlights, Wipers, Cruise

A few pics when I got it:





After a bit a few mods:

Nice looking car.

Wheels really suit it, are they 18" or 19" CSLs? Guessing they are reps too?

[stugolf]

Thanks for the comments

There 19s 8.5 front and 9.5 rear

The front grills, rear spoiler and mirrors are carbon fibre too, hard to tell on the pics

Nice, wish mine had a sunroof.

Have you lowered it or is that on standard M Sport springs ?

Considered having it mapped ?

[stugolf]

It's slightly lowered on Eibach springs which bring the front down quite nicely

Remap is on its way!

That's tempting me to go with the eibach ones. I heard the drop was very minimal, but it does look just that little bit lower in your pics. I like it

Cheers

I like the amount it's dropped, I need the car to be practical as well so it manages all speed ramps well while still looking quite stanced

Yes I have the same problem, I can't slam it either due to work comittments in London on London roads which are pot holes and speed ramps.

What's the ride like on the ebiachs over standard ?

[stugolf]

It rides well, it's slightly firmer than M Sport IMO but it's not helped with the 19s I have on

Looks really nice. I have a 320d m sport. I love how these cars look, but I feel the exhaust tips really let them selves down and have considered switching to a twin petrol like yours. My only concern is how the Sutton will effect it

How long have you had yours on, have you found it pain to keep on top off?

I too am running 19's and skinny tyres along with the standard M Sport springs.
