Wackojacko's 330i Sport.....

[wackojacko]

Afternoon all....

Well I've gone and done it, needed something RWD for the road for some time now so 5 hours after Landing in Gatwick this morning this was purchased.

Needs new rear tyres already (they were fairly worn to start with but are shot now) I laughed until I saw the price of the rears at 255-40-18


Just the spec I wanted aswell with the Cubic trim (carbon effect), sport cloth seats and the MV1 alloys.

The drive home was brilliant !











What ya think......

[Great Pretender]

Welcome to the club. You won't own another FWD car for a long time now

[melvster]

Very tidy mate.

[Baryonyx]

The colourful world of BMW! Looks nice enough, but the cloth trim on the seats looks a bit tired. Any plans to sort that out?

[Ranger 6]

A decent car at last ......

Yes mate! Welcome to the Under 21s 330i Club. I would have a go for getting the same colour as me, but looking closely I see MV1 wheels so I guess it's Topaz Blue right? Looks very nice, may we ask mileage and how much you got it for, can't wait to get the 2 330s next to each other and have a good look around them.

If you're anywhere close to Lightwater/Bisley, Martin's tyres did me a great price on some Falkens too.

Just seen this, exactly the same here, Martin did a great deal on the Falkens for the rears.

Welcome to the club!

They are fantastic cars (would like to compare mine to a 330i at some point), and you will love it when you get it on a decent road. Love mine to bits

That one looks particularly nice too, hope you enjoy it!

Another vote for Martins - a cracking deal for the Mini. Oh yes, and they're close enough you could call in for a coffee

[Synchromesh]

S'pose I better get one now...

In all seriousness, they do look like a great all round car, and I'm always a sucker for blue cars.

Keeping the S3/Astra?

[JayTee94]

IIRC he sold the Astra and uses an MR2 as a track toy. I would think this would replace the S3 but may be wrong.

If I am honest - I prefer the S3, but the 330i is a very nice car indeed.

[cslwannabe]

Should be 255 35 18 (fronts are 225 40 18)

Oh dear

[Another Fluffer]

Awesome matey, what was the insurance like?

50p knowing you

Got any plans for the old beast?

[Stedman]

Gay.

Looks lovely mate! Will you bringing it to the Ace at the end of October?

[Jw Vw]

That looks fantastic. Great cars. So much class.

[liller]

nice colour and nice seats! same as mine - I thought I would regret not hunting one down with leather but the cloth/alcantara seats are very nice

Nope, IIRC he had a slight bump so his insurance will go insane - knowing Jack it will hit new heights of 60p at least.

Very nice indeed. Cloth/alcantara beats black leather for me. If you have chrome exhausts tips, they respond very well to some wire wool on E46s I find.
