My absolute favourite car, although maybe not in that colour.

I know that car. Young lady owner. Some tunez going on under the bonnet as well IIRC.

I quite like it. Its different, individual, well executed. Just perhaps a little brash. I wouldn't personally do it, but I appreciate it.

@Acme just wants some pumpum clearly doesn't like the car it's darn ugly I think. This new thing about 50/50 wraps is ridiculous.

No no no...

I do actually think its quirky and cool. Leave me alone

It has a wind deflector hanging off and everything man.

I like the purple colour, and the black 'wallpaper' I don't mind but together on the same car is just weird. Also the Fiat 500 looks are absolutely not to my taste so that doesn't help.

It will drive anyone with OCD crazy. Off-centre exhausts are bad enough

The first thing I thought of was Tommy Lee Joan's as two face. When cars used to be 2 tone it was a lot more stylish (top and bottom for you youngsters)

Did this person genuinely opt for the M performance brakes and stuff on a 118i??

From the front and sides I thought it was a 130i or greater... And herein lies the problem with BMW these days :/

Cleisthenes · 15 Jul 2019 at 22:53

If that's the case they've clearly spent a good amount of money on decent brakes which I suppose is hard to fault, even if they have put a dodgy badge on the back!

mrk · 15 Jul 2019 at 22:59

At the kind of performance a 1.5 litre 3 cylinder engine is capable of on a car the size and weight of a 1 series hatch? The standard brakes are more than enough. It's more likely the salesman had a bit of a field day with that customer

Nasher · 16 Jul 2019 at 08:09

In a few years the brakes will be worth more than the rest of the car.

Gornall · 16 Jul 2019 at 12:18

Very few buy the M-Sport + package for the higher rated brakes performance, it's all aesthetics and the HK sound.

MikeTheNative · 16 Jul 2019 at 13:59

I suppose they were just thinking ahead to all the tailgating they are going to be doing.

New Lotus SUV testing near Hethel today

Shadowness · 16 Jul 2019 at 14:24

For the love of God why?!
Lotus's aren't for posing in, they're for driving for Christ's sake!
