Hello - From Hampshire

[BeingAshwani]

Hello everyone :D

I've just bought an BMW 318CI convertible 2002 - Auto (N42 Engine) 84K

Its amazing owning this motor at 20 years of age :D

Heard lots about these engine (N42) aren't really good :(

when the car is cold the car runs rough at low rpm's and feels like its gonna stall (sometimes engine management light comes on but goes away after engine warms up), other than that no problem :)

hello and welcome ashwani :)

i wouldnt worry my m3 when cold is awful, just needs to warm up a little its a beemer thing!!!

nice looking motor pal

[BeingAshwani]

ahh Okay! Thanks Gavin :)

Welcome to the club, Ashwani. Nice motor there. If you don't mind me asking, just out of interest, what does your insurance cost you? I'd imagine a fair bit at your age?

[BeingAshwani]

Thanks Jeff.

I am paying £160/month for 3 months until March. By March I will be completing my 3 years no claim and also i'll be turning 21 in Feb; Hoping to drop a lot after March ;)

Before this monster motor :p i used to drive VW Golf mk4 1.6 and i was paying £110/month.

im 27 i pay £455 fully comp for my m3 with 8years no claims

i had a fiesta rs turbo when i was 20 and paid £1700 3rd party :o with 1years no claims

being aged 25 or above is a big help, i had the audi when i turned 25 went from £990 fcomp to £395 fcomp :D

4 years m8 not long!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rolleyes:

[BeingAshwani]

I Literally can not wait to turn 25 now !!

I was paying £3700 Fully Comprehensive for my first car VW Golf MK4 1.4S (GTI Replica modified) when i was 17 :o

#ridiculous

The car was worth only £1800

Thanks mate

[Dizgav]

oh my good god!!!!!!!!!

the thing is when you turn 25 you just want a big car and that can, and will be very expensive to buy the car and to run it,,

im lucky to get 22.5 mpg :wacko: but the fun never stops ///m power

[BeingAshwani]

yeah thats actually the fact!

omg :/ haha got to experience m/// power mate :D

when i will turn 25 i wanna own an Rotary engine; it has been my dream car Mazda RX7 :p

[Dizgav]

ahhhh

my advice dont get one, if them carbon plates go wrong its game over !!!

i looked into them b4 the audi .around 60000 miles then they pop#

if you do a very low miles one :wacko:

[Dizgav]

[BeingAshwani]
