Hi, new here from Linlithgow in West Lothian. Getting a 2006 330d M-Sport Tourer (ing!!??) at the weekend, it's my first ever BMW and I'm moving from a Volvo S60 2.5 turbo.

What can I expect then?

    Welcome! You may on occasion see my 1 series (E82) parked in the retail park in Linlithgow :)

    Hopefully get a wee scottish meet organised soon too!

    On occasion! Good wee bargains y'know! I agree with the previous comments on remapping too, had the 1 series remapped a couple of weeks ago, was 183bhp 268lbft torque standard, left Ecotune with 228bhp 345lbft torque and an awesome drive home :D

    My brother in law owns a garage and he's egging me on to get it done. He's done several, including an Escort RS2000 and an Audi Quattro 2.2 and he swears by it!

    I'm thinking about doing it but wondering if losing point 2 seconds up to 60 really makes a difference lol

    It makes a difference to the drive! I'm also getting 10mpg more now that it's done than I was previously which is even better :D

    Each to their own though :)
