Did someone say pops and crackles?

Cleisthenes · 2 Dec 2015 at 16:39

We can have a pop competition on Saturday

I didn't know that your car was limited to 155, what's its uncapped top speed approximately?

mrk · 2 Dec 2015 at 16:59

I haven't enabled burble/pop, it's not good for the cats - Aftermarket/tuned setups would be fine. Plus, I don't want it anyway, screenshot was just for bants

155 limit removal takes it to 176 GPS (just over 180 on the speedo).

Not sure if you care, but your screenie has the reg plate on it.

Not my screenshot but one posted publicly

I'm nowhere near my car and app so just googled the screen!

Does that software work on my 330i?

M only!

But mine is a ...m...sport

mrk · 3 Dec 2015 at 08:59

I believe "M Sport" E46s were 2004-2006 only

Yes they were. I have to suffice with having a sport only. Stupid m badges everywhere.

Hmm, not sure.

My Sept 2004 E46 is a Sport, not M-Sport on pretty much every database.

September 2005 is when BMW renamed Sport to M Sport.

Consequently the only M Sport e46 are coupes and cabs as the saloon was out of production by then.

Thanks for the clarification.

Guess you had one. Prices going up and staying strong. No dip this winter. Been loving mine for 2 years. Half the reason iv not had ££ to spend on a PC.

Nope, never had one but have always wanted one.

Does seem like prices have gone up since the last time i looked. Would love a sub 50k GT AP2, Grey with red leather. The cost of ownership is the thing that turns me off when i put my sensible head on.

Mate has a plastidipped one, was camo green but think he's done is silver now. His looks sick.

Shaddow1086 · 3 Dec 2015 at 14:32

Yeah, was rather lucky when i found mine. 2 years ago, 05 with 23K on clock. Since then iv added a few and now on 34K.
Running cost not that bad, insurance can be a bit of a pain, but avg 28 MPG is good for what you get.

Logsi · 3 Dec 2015 at 14:33

I think it was mainly insurance, tax and fuel that turned me off. Got used to £250 fully comp, £130 tax and 36mpg.

A full afternoon detailing it and it's now protected for the winter

The wax I used (my last post in the cleaning thread) is absolutely superb, the beading and water run off is so good, I just hope it's as durable as it's claimed to be
