Show Me Your BMW!!!!!!!!!
Discussion
Here is my 330ci I've had since 2014.
I had it off the road for two years a couple of years ago and since then I've tried to get it into great condition (it was never in great condition tbh). New wings, wheel refurb, quite a bit of mechanical work done . It's mostly electric gremlins now (dipping passenger mirror not undipping, parking sensors not sensing, cruise control not cruising).

Still got it, coming up to 8 years soon.
Imola leather, very nice but I do want cinnamon leather, so am considering a fully extended leather retrim at LG. Extended leather up to the dash and include same colour centre arm rest too of course.

Looks fab. What's the stereo? Imola leather, very nice but I do want cinnamon leather, so am considering a fully extended leather retrim at LG. Extended leather up to the dash and include same colour centre arm rest too of course.

My 645Ci. This has just appeared in a Reader's Car thread, but it seemed appropriate to park it here too. Behind it is the everyday 330d coupe, which inspired me to go fully BMW in my pair.
Still to be sold is my 2013 Merc SLK350; good in many ways but I didn't spend anything as much time looking at pictures for that as I did for the 645.
Owned for two months and 600 miles, enjoying it very much though still not used to 20 inch wheels or the visible swiping left of the fuel gauge needle. The suspension has been slightly lowered for the wheels, so it wouldn't be a straight swap. Time will tell.
Offside headlamp isn't working on dip; this seems to be the fault of the connectors, so a bumper-off job to get this sorted. Or at least my (honest and trusted) spannermen tell me.
I fitted Eibach springs to mine with 20” VC7 wheels. Only 25/20mm lower F/R

Could I ask, what rubber is on your rear wheels? Mine could do with renewing before the winter.

I had fitted brand new Bridgestone Turanza runflats to the standard alloys just a few weeks prior to buying the 20’s, & the car feels better on the non-runflat Nangkans!
Not technically my BMW but hired this little thing last week to mooch around Malta and Gozo and was pleasantly surprised, not least by how well I fitted in it, to the point where I briefly considered buying one, but it's just a bit ugly. If you're going to pose around in a convertible it should either look beautiful or sporty, and the 2 doesn't manage either, it's just a small, squat-looking generic BMW.
