Hi fellow BMW lovers

Robbiem · 06-03-2014, 03:27 AM

I am now on my second BMW. About three years ago, I bought a 2006 Titan Silver E90 323 M Sport. I had so much fun in this car that when I finally racked up over 200'000 Klms it was a no brainer to buy another Beamer. I searched and researched and finally found a 2007 Sapphire Black, E92 335i with 35,000 Klms on it. Wow, what a machine, the difference in one year of manufacture is simply amazing. I loved my 323 but the 335 is something that I want to just drive forever.
I live in the bush, about three hours from Sydney and only an hour out of Bathurst, the roads out here are not the best but this car handles everything I can throw at it. I would love to hear from other BMW owners out this way.

I'm assuming u live in orange? Went uni there a couple years back, only thing I loved was driving through mount Victoria!

Edit: BTW congratz on the bimmer! Nice to see u enjoy the upgrade, I wanted to upgrate to a 335 so drove one the other day, was quick but not that much to persuade me. Enjoy!

Welcome - hope you enjoy it here! You have not mentioned any future plans for your 335i; do you have any mods in mind?

gratz on the low km 335i purchase. Just make sure you understand whether you've had your high pressure fuel pump and water pumps replaced. The most notorious defects of the 335i

Enjoy!

I actually live in Rylstone, a real pretty part of the world with some great driving roads. The Bylong Valley Way starts here and the road from Rylstone to Bathurst is just magnificent. As for upgrades, I am currently looking at the Turner Motorsport Cold Air intake, seems to make sense to me, get more colder air in quicker and smoother for about 14 BHP. Turners however are in the US and the freight is a killer. Any comments?

Enjoy!

Will do Mate, thanks for the tip. Just lately, I've had a few issues with the engine missing, running on about three cylinders, this could be the answer. As for the water pump, the temperature is not stable so this could also be an issue.

Awesome, enjoy!

Ok, new HPFP fitted under warranty and the car is going like a train. I bought a cold air intake from Turner Motorsport in the US. We fitted it up as the HPFP was being fitted as we all of the right stuff off. The acceleration that I am now getting literally makes you laugh out load. I love this car with a passion, it handles, it stops, it goes and it looks fabulous.
