I'm usually the same, although last 'til about 6 months until I decide it looks boring.

In my opinion, the E92 looks perfect from every angle - especially the M-Sport with 19"s I usually end up modifying some aspect of the exterior of the car (usually wheels and perhaps lowering) but everyone I know is really amazed that 6 months in and I haven't touched it (apart from fitting LUX H8's)

well so far all ive done is the wheels and black grills, i think i might go for a drop though. I was careful to buy a car this time with factory spec i'd be happy with, only things this is missing that I would have liked is heated seats and usb interface, but i can live without those.

Actually I tell a lie - I have the BMW P black grilles too

Lowering would be nice (as the front sits quite a bit high) but no major for me. I have the heated seats but no USB interface - would have liked that too - may look at retrofitted the 6FL at some point.

I keep hankering over something quicker, but all too quick to forget how good a car my 325i is, it's quick but you need to keep the revs up to get it going...

My mate keeps telling me I should get a golf GTI/R32, the GTI's slightly faster than mine where mine is slightly faster than the R32 (in a straight line) I do like the Golfs but it's just not "as good" or as well specced as mine, plus they are older....

6cyl's are so smooth as well

Hi fellow Cumbrian
Your car is looking good, I was torn between the lm's and the corsa 818's and decided to go with the 818's. Have you had any more thoughts on joining the bmw owners club? I have sorted a trip to the Lakeland car museum in the next couple of months. Will be. A chance to show off your car.

Same here, in the next 18months or so i would like to switch to a quicker
3er prob a big diesel but i really do like my 325i... and yes totally agree as long as you keep the revs well up and dont let it go to sleep it is a very game engine.

Wouldnt dream of trading mine in for anything other than
another BMW..

Take a look in the photos and video section under "e92 space grey with 818's " I have attached several photos of the car there. The deep concave is really what made me buy them.
