Average over the last 2 weeks (450 odd miles). Quite impressive really considering its a 3 litre N/A engine.

*I really need to clean my car

The e89 is growing on me. Lots of negative reviews though saying its a more of a gt and less of a sports car.
Wishing they would make a light e89 m coupe.

The E89 always looks so good in photos.

Can someone tell me if this is real or just some photoshop?

I have never seen anything like it....ever.

[TW]Fox · 14 Apr 2012 at 10:25

It's about as obvious a Photoshop as you will ever see

NickXX · 14 Apr 2012 at 10:36

Seems legit to me.

It's an Audi R8, I can tell by the pixels.

2003 E46 M3

All OEM, only additions are Ipod connector and it has TV in the headrests (done before I owned it!) Love the car in pretty much every way. Only down side is the fuel costs. I commute 70miles a day round trip and the best I can get out of it doing around 60mph is 30mpg!

I feel for your loss.

Anyone own a 125i?

Thinking it as a possible next car.

Only available as a Coupe or Cab

New M3 on the autobahn. A 420bhp 1M coupe can barely keep up with it so its going to be pretty quick.

Yes I know. I park next to a 6 month old 1 series cab with the m sport stuff. Looks nice and the dark red leather actually suits the car well. Albeit the engine is a 120d...sort of confused. :confused:

Don't patronise me.

Raymond Lin · 14 Apr 2012 at 14:28

Well, I like its look, the engine should be nice and I hear good things about it from its performance to its mpg (not that it matters that much with the miles that I do) but wonder what actual first hand experience are. The same old question really. I'm after a coupe, unless they do a hard top cab.

What are the things to look out for when buying one. Real life mpg. What options I must get. Things like that.

I got all summer to find one, thinking between the 125 or Volvo C30 T5 but leaning towards the BMW for its more useable boot and I'd like to try a RWD.

[TW]Fox · 14 Apr 2012 at 14:33

Don't forget the 125i has the N52 engine and not the newer super-efficient N53.

Make sure you get one with Xenons or you get the nasty cheap reflector headlights.
