Has always done that in cold weather when sun is out, clears up when engine is started and AC on.

The Busso is one of the best sounding engines ever made in my opinion... I am sorely tempted to get an old Alfa just for the noise... 
Sods law may dictate than an old Alfa will be the most reliable car I've ever owned, who knows!

Nothing quite as fancy as some of the motors Ive seen whilst browsing this thread - But Im happy with it.
A4 2.0 TFSI Quattro
At least it’s not the diesel! And it doesn’t have black wheels. You win 2 internet points.
I liked my B8.5 (and mine was a dirty diesel). What options does it have?
Caporegime
Pirellis though so -1 point. But +1 again for no black badges.
Cant stand black wheels myself either - They just look wrong.
Its a Black Edition so all the usual spec with that - But non of the optional extra's on top (Having seen the price of some of them , I understand why they wern't bought !)
Ive added Audi Drive select using VCDS, and changed a few more minor things. Got a Maxton front splitter to fit when it warms up slightly (Unsure if I will like it though so may get removed)
Caporegime
-5 OcUK points.
In my defense I havnt paid anything for it - Was given by a friend after he sold his A4. I will reserve my judgement until I see it fitted

You're not wrong! I'm normally a V8 man but the Busso sounds like a symphony when it winds up.The Busso is one of the best sounding engines ever made in my opinion... I am sorely tempted to get an old Alfa just for the noise...

Reliability is not one of the words I'd use to describe my short period of Alfa ownership

Thank you sir. I find that Alfa design tends to be a bit Marmite but the 90s GTV has always looked perfect to my eyes.I didn't used to be a fan of Alfas, but that GTV looks absolutely amazing. Perhaps it's something that comes with age!
Nice Jag too

Possibly not to everyones taste, but collected this yesterday BMW M340i - and I like it (although it's possible that at some point I may change the wheel colour, I did with my previous 340i as black isn't my favourite colour, but they aren't gloss black).
Was an impulse purchase as was offered an ok p-ex for the 340i and what I thought was a fair price (after some discussions) for this that was stock with a reasonable spec + kit.
Currently dirty and covered in some snow after the drive back + current weather, I will take some proper photos when it clears up and I give it a wash, Dealer phone photos below.
M340i xDrive Saloon
Portimao Blue with Black Vernasca Leather (Blue Stitching)
Comfort Pack
Visibility Pack
Technology Pack
Full BMW Performance bodykit and wheels
That's gorgeous, Much prefer the saloon shape over the coupe, Get those wheels in silver and you're onto a winner.

Agree, with the base wheel colour that is probably one of the nicest looking 3 Series BMW have ever done.
Best buy them quick as there is no way that wonderful look survives the facelift

Do we know when models are planned for facelift? Specifically 3 and X3 - might get some better deals on older models as that date approaches?
It's a possibility at some point
for now I would be happy to be able to wash it without turning the drive and road into an ice rink! roll on a less freezing weekend!Usually around 3 and a half years after introduction. So the X3 is due imminently I'd imagine but a good 18 months at least before the 3 Series is due.
Soldato
Yeah agreed. It's this years project for sure.
Been keeping an eye out on ebay for a replacement bonnet (had a black one on when I bought it. Looks awful ) but I'll probably just get it sprayed along with the bumper which is a mess with stone chips
Might be better to wait a bit for a pre-LCI deal then (X3)

In the snow recently, M2 is the incoming car, C63 on the way out, currently for sale.
