Yep, you're going to need long arms & deep pockets if you keep it long term

When you change the shocks it makes sense to replace the suspension top mounts & the rubber spring pads.

It probably does make sense. Do you happen to have links to the parts in question oem or ones peeps around here recommend? Quick search around and a baffling minute or two on realoem and i`m non the wiser..

Yeah for my 35i the spring pads are part No's. B31.33.6.764.372 & " " " 767.500
No point not getting them from main dealer as they only came to £7.61 Inc VAT

Front top mounts can be brought for cheap from ECP, I got mine from main dealer as I couldn't get the oem TRW ones at the time & paid a bit much for them @ £165 for the pair.

Cheers dude.

Tracked down some Sach and Lemforder options on the old e of bay for the front tops. Looking about £60 for the pair. Will give BMW Costwold a buzz in the morning for the spring pads.

Had enough of today to be digging any more and researching if these are the best options. Will pick it back up in the morn

No issues but I have spent a bit on the 35i during September;

£24 on 2 litres of Castrol React Performance brake fluid.
£84 on a set of 6 Proline braided steel brake lines.
£210 to supply & fit a pair of new anti roll bar linkages, swap out the brake lines, flush & change the brake flud.

£96 on a set of EBC Red Stuff rear pads & a brake wear sensor, which I will change myself before I get it MOTed which is due towards the end of next month.

The new anti roll bar links have improved the handling, I hadn't realised how worn they had become. They were an advisory on last year's MOT & I just hadn't gotten around to sorting it until now.
Hopefully it'll pass it's MOT with no issues, only covered 3,368 miles so far since last years.

October, £45 mot which it passed with no advisories & £300 for 6 months ved

Had a nice mid week break by the sea & got 31.7mpg on the 50 mile journey with myself, the missus, Frank our 50 kilo Alsatian & a boot full of luggage, all town & B road driving. I thought that was pretty good.

Another one of those cheap months where the government have subsidised my car expenses!
£35 for MOT, no advisories, after 6 months free lockdown 1 extension!
In 10 days they can send me a cheque for £370 for the unused VED as it goes onto SORN until the sunshine returns.

No expenses for November or December other than fuel & some heat shrink tube.
Sport mode stopped working in late November. Upon inspection all the gear selector wiring was either broken or on the verge of breaking. Was a cheap but fiddly & time consuming repair.

Currently the 35i is running very nicely
