    Loving the fluffy dice, man. :p
    Looks good, well wear. :)

    Could do with being a bit lower I reckon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,515 ✭✭✭arleitiss


    Corsa > BMW.....does not compute :P

    I will get used to it.... soon.

    Posters remorse, MM? :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,854 ✭✭✭✭MetzgerMeister


    Yeah, after I posted it, I read it and it just didn't really make sense!

    The main thing I was thinking is that arleitiss was saying how he was VERY tight when it came to petrol in his Corsa. The BMW is a much heavier car with a bigger engine!

    Also, himself must have been beating the F5 button waiting to see what people were going to say about his new Bimmer. I didn't have that post up 10 seconds before I deleted it again :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,721 ✭✭✭✭CianRyan


    It'll definitely drink more than the Corsa alright.

    No, I been reading around Dublin forums, and there is that news/letters in corner near your username it shows when someone has replied (in new theme)

    At least here I will pay for something that actually takes reasonable amount of petrol, and not corsa's either ****ed up fuel sensor or engine problem taking like 9 litres per 100 km

    Sorry but I have to say that BMW looks like it slid backwards into Halfords. But each to there own.

    I might get other parts wrapped too, I prefer either all or nothing to be wrapped.

    I'm only joking with ya man! :D

    To be fair, I saw it too. I was trying to figure out what you meant too.
    The transition was weird is what I first thought you meant, was racking my brain thinking of something to say but everything could have sounded nasty. Left it alone. :p

    I'd think about changing the wheels, or at least changing the colour. I hate black wheels and I'm not into the red rim either, just me though. :)

    I love black wheels and black color, and thin wheels (like that ones)
    Apparently the seller also gave me 4 original tyres (~80%) and it's original rims.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,157 ✭✭✭✭Alanstrainor


    Is it a 318?

    I'm thinking about getting a set of angel eyes, and have been for ages, but I really don't want that blue colour that yours have. A lot of them seem to have that though, so I'm not so sure.

    Well wear man.

    That's called low profile tyres. Thin would be something different (like a bike wheel is thin).

    Snapped this whilst it was getting a quick wash at CleanCar. Odds are strong it's definitely going to rain imminently.

    You could get OEM colour like my own - more of an amber/white than 'HID' blue :cool:

    Thanks :) Its an SES, I think all the 1.8 saloons are the same spec which is decent to be fair.

    The dash is lovely I must say, I'l post a few pics tomorrow. If its allowed in this thread! Some of the best stuff...

    Cruise control
    Aircon
    Climate control
    Velour seats
    Sunroof
    VSA (Vehicle Stability Assistance)
    Front and rear parking sensors
    Dash mounted stereo controls
    Heated electric mirrors
    And other stuff i cant remember....

    The engine is a beaut. Its got a nice balance of grunt and refinement.

    :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73,499 ✭✭✭✭colm_mcm


    Class! Same as mine so, must get some pics of them!

    That 1.8 iVtec engine is remarkable.

    138 BHP and 40+ MPG combined.

    One of the best naturally aspirated engines out there.

    no tax or insurance, coz im a boy racer :D:D
    not really :rolleyes:

    It's not the most powerful of yokes, but the fuel economy is very good considering I'm driving

    Not sure on specs but its a completely different set up to the UK models, if you look up the 5th Gear comparison the JDM car absolutely destroys the UKDM car. Like, many seconds, not just one or two faster around the track.

    My dad's new Company Car:

    20130118_145401.jpg

    20130118_145418.jpg

    Yes, yes it is Silver but seeing it in person I think it suits the car. He was originally going to go for the Metallic brown but decided against it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,721 ✭✭✭✭CianRyan


    Good choice on the brown.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,817 ✭✭✭✭Dord


    Good choice. The only car I ever saw that brown suited was a Merc W123. Like this below;
