Good grief! He's used shorthand versions of a couple of words. It's hardly on the same level as that Vectra Lexus Lights ebay auction is it?

Sheesh!

I agree. I've never really noticed it before, but has this forum become THAT suspicious?
 
ok now im worried.

420bhp at the wheels, so got to be pushing 500bhp at the flywheel

so thats 200bhp

from a remap and exhaust ......

Remap exhaust and Intercooler and sportscats are 100bhp increase at the fly at best ...

This thread is going to be a big one !

trouble is mate

we've had a history of complete clots comming on here and pretending they own cars they dont

One even tried to pass of a photo taken during the day when it was dark as "down to the very bright garage lights" coining a joke forever immortalised in OcUK history called "the portable sun"

Other such hilarties include one deluded child who claimed a good looking brazilian football fan was his girlfriend (that somebody just happened to see on TV at a match during the world cup), and that he had bought a C230kompressor as a project car because he wanted to supercharge it.

And then there was the one who tried to pretend he had a nova that was heavily modified, that just so happened to belong to somebody else that had been on TV and got caught out ..

The list goes on mate. Hence some people may be suspicious

I think he was talking about the figures on the website he linked to as being at the wheel. The figures he posted are at the flywheel. I think?
 
He used U

OMG, the CEO of the company I work for sent me an email with U in, I must jump up and down on his desk demanding that he resigns from his position because no one earning over 50p a week abbreviates words!

Poor man's M3.

kinda true :D however beats it in straightline speed any many other cars as many have been shocked to discover :D dont get me wrong still love to have an e92 M3 tho, even tho they are slower :D

ordered it for 57 reg the exact same time the e92 m3 was released. really didnt think the e92 m3 warranted an extra 15k for the same spec as what i have now
 
In the ideal world the m3 would be a twin turbo V8 so you get that V8 sound track, and the surge from the turbos

all while still being faster than the twin turbo straight six 335i

c'mon BMW. Make it so, stick the new M5 engine in it !

Wont happen though. If the M5 gets the new twin turbo V8, the next m3 will get the twin turbo 6 out of the 335i, no doubt revised for higher power slightly.

Your car looks to be a good spec for a change - you even went for the front parking sensors which virtually none of them seem to have :(.

Did you go for a speaker upgrade or just the stock stuff?
