Hows it going guys?

Have had a 335d coupe since Jan 2010 (and a 320d M sport before that).

Joined recently and thought I'd say hello!

Morning all

Just put a deposit down for a 2007 E90 335i M Sport to replace my recently departed 350Z, which I adored!

With a 5 day old baby I need something bigger so I'm hoping the 335 will fit the bill whilst still delivering pace and enjoyment. I'm based in Herts just inside the M25.

Look forward to getting stuck into the forum and already have a few small mods planned!

Its a great car and very pleased so far, looks great with the BMW Performance kit and 313 wheels+CF Spoiler. I really like the way they have sorted the M Sport suspension to work well with RFT's, and the steering is heavier than my old car Im sure il have lots of questions for you in the future!

That's a really nice spoiler - genuine BMW?

yep everything is OEM BMW , thinking of some mods to do to her without going mad, not sure about roof spoilers on e90's, may go CF front grills, and definately want to replace the exhaust tip and get the BMW Performance brakes with yellow calipers. Any recommendations appreciated, thanks

I like the OEM gloss black front grille but I think carbon would suit yours given your rear spoiler.

Love the 313 wheels too-currently trying to decide between them and CSLs!

i was looking at those cf grills aswell, would like nice, but they are 160 squid. im still trying to find the uprated torque converter for the gearbox, so i can get her tuned without worrying its gonna blow up.

Hello everybody. Just got my 2007 318i Se with just over 12K on it in Silver. Very pleased with it and hope to do a couple of mods to it to get it how I like. Will be using the forum for information and to pass any on if possible.

Hello!

Hello All,
Got my 325i about 3 months ago, and absolutely love it!!
Don't think I can go back to another brand now :P

Its due its MOT in a couple of weeks, so fingers crossed it sails through

Here is a picture on the day I drove her home:

Hey!

Hi guys!

I've been stalking these forums for quite a while, thought I'd post a few photos of my new beast! She's an E92 330D SE manual, she has the aerodynamic kit factory fitted, and M Sport suspension. I'm going to being doing a full CIC iDrive retrofit soon, with help from Patrys from Bimmertech. This is my first ever BMW, having owned an Alfa 156 in the past and a string of horrible cars. And unfortunately someone failed to stop behind me recently, and so I'm getting a replacement rear bumper soon (paid for by their insurance).

I'm from the Kent area, so feel free to flash (your lights) if you see me around. Anyway, photos!

hello all ... like a lot of folks been lurking for a while. I'm on my 5th BMW - currently e93 330i MSport .. previously 335d MSport E90 ... X3 ... X5 ... 523i

plans for some subtle modifications ... been debating for weeks whether to go with the ACS exhaust or BMW performance ... or just get BWM performance air intake.

E93 is great - best 'modification' was getting rid of the damn runflats .. totally different car now, only wish I had done the same to my 335d which went through boots every 7k...

Some pics hopefully attached ..

Cheers.

Talking Another lurker

Have been lurking and gleaning info for some time now, so joined to reap the full benefits from the forums.

First BMW, loving it but not without its problems....

330D M Sport on 19's lowered to the nuts but needs new suspension....work in progress....still deciding what to put in.

335 twin pipes on the back....looks the business.

Add more, as and when i have time.

Cheers

Evening Guys,

Just saying hello, I've just bought myself an E90 325i M Sport Manual in sparkling graphite, I've come from a t reg golf gti turbo so it's a bit of a step up and at 20 the insurance company is charging a fortune, but it's more than worth it.

Looking to get well involved with the forum and have already learnt lots, which I'm not sure is a good or bad thing as I work at a BMW dealership so should really know about e90s.

Mike

Not a newbie but haven't really posted much.

Hi all.
I joined up ages ago (over 4 years ago) when I was looking at E39 540s, but ultimately didn't want to leave Volvo (at the time)
I'm now about to replace my lovely S60 D5 with a E91 320D, so have logged in to have a read and maybe ask some (daft) questions.

Thanks all
Chris

2 months now....I finally (we) own a sensible car!

Quiet, refined, relatively quick and importantly will be able to fit baby type apparel inside.

A bit bouncy on the RFT but I'm used to that.....especially after having owned (and still own) old fashioned French hot hatches.

Uses loads more diesel than anticipated - although I'm working through the issues on this.

You're not 'Y2blade' on PH are you?

Yep, that's me lol
Good to hear you are liking your 320d

I'm a fan of the old Hatches too, My OH had a 205GT (1.4 on twin webers) when we first got together great fun little car..have also driven a few 205 1.9GTIs and the 309GTI too
