He talking about the Abarth 126 which is basically the same car.

Fair enough.

Yeah I meant the 124. Not the city car.

Very nice but I would say that . I think I can see locking wheel nuts on there?
Nice additional touches.
Mine's at 200 miles now. Indeed, a fantastic car.
What's the number /3000 btw?

Yes she does have locking wheel nuts! I am only waiting for the stainless clutch and accelerator pedals to be delivered.

Number 1849/3000

That needs to be lowered so bad!

Incorrect. Good ride height imo - looks great.

Yesss well done for not ordering it with the awful shadow pack. Looks good.

ChrisD. · 18 Oct 2019 at 12:07

Is that the new 3? I really, really like the look of them.

Yes, it's the new M340i.
It was a stock car at Barretts in Canterbury that they'd just got in with technology pack and comfort pack.

Still not sure how I feel about their approach to the kidney grille, but a beautiful car nonetheless. Enjoy it.

grudas · 18 Oct 2019 at 13:35

that does look good! like the chrome/metal too

Steedie · 18 Oct 2019 at 13:51

BMW have lost the plot with the new kidney grills but everything else is lovely!

Proper smart that.

I like the new generation 3 series, small pet peeve, your basic 320i gets 2 single exhaust pipes on each side, like you'd normally find on x35/40i cars, annoys me for some reason, normally you know it's something special as opposed to your normal rep mobile.

You think that's annoying? The 520i gets trapezoidal pipes which on the previous model only came on the 550i..

Necessary evil I think, everyone is going down the route of active shutter flaps on the grills to bring them up to operating temperature faster from cold and reduce aero drag

My car has these yet retains the conventional BMW grille so it's not that.

adam cool dude · 18 Oct 2019 at 16:28

When I see new BMW's I just want to play angry birds.

AiiR · 18 Oct 2019 at 16:29

Yeah ours has active shutters on the grilles and they are the classic style.

I'm glad i'm not the only one it annoys, The peasants with their little x20 cars deserve a single pipe, not two!!!
